Mini phal ID? Male
Default Mini phal ID?

Hello all-
Would anyone be able to ID this phalaenopsis?



I purchased it around April while it was in full bloom. The flowers were a nice dark violet that I absolutely adored. The flowers are very faintly fragrant (nice and sweet). When illuminated by light, small sparkles of white and red glow in the petals.




As for the plant itself-it is an absolute powerhouse. Between being moved from the store to a dorm and then to a house (all with rather different indoor climates), it never skipped a beat. Roots have continued to grow quickly without end (even after I repotted it from sphag to bark). It also pushed out a nice leaf that finished growing in two months.

After all the original blooms fell, it even had enough energy to produce three extra blooms in the middle of summer! These blooms do look different from the originals though-near the borders of the flower there is now a border of pale yellow that ages to white. The deep violet is still there; it just doesn't cover the entire bloom like when I purchased it.



On the back of the bloom there is a slightly translucent white layer over the violet.



I'd love to be able have an ID for this wonderful individual! Thanks in advance!
EDIT: sorry about the sideways photos; not sure why it happened
