Phal 'Yin's Black Eagle'

[DeafOrchidLover]

I just bought mine recently from orchid growers. I didn’t really realize till I saw the name. It was on my wishlist for 3 years. Yippie! It’s in excellent condition and also spike but the first bud 😢 was already blasted because we had horrible heatwave and dryness in the air. So it’s going to be indoor growing. Soo excited and also looking forward to see it’s flower. ❤️

Unfortunately, I lost the first flower, it started coloring, then it went yellow and fell off Waiting on the second now.

Be careful "pushing" the light level. Most phalaenopsis are "deep shade" plants, living low in trees under thick canopies. Too much light can reduce the growth and blooming.
