I have recently ventured into this same arena - I hope.

Phalaenopsis Mini Mark is a definite miniature. My mature plant with two spikes has a 5" leaf span.

I pollinated it with Sogo Redfox. a red-barred gigantea hybrid with 24" leaves. Hopefully I'll get the size mostly from Mini Mark.

Hi all,

Thanks for the interesting reactions.
The label withit sais "Flower Pearls Orchids", Originating from Denmark (propably the wholesaler for Northern Europe. Their site didn't help very much. However the label stated intermediate growing conditions (22-25°C).
Howver, Your info was very usefull. Ddn't find it at Sogo Orchids, exept a picture on the PDF link that was provided (center bottom phal.).
It definitely is not Sogo-1307. This flower is more rounded and larger, I've seen it.
I agree that P. equestris propably is in it's breeding line but P. parishi is also a possibility.
This is one of the smallest flowers I've seen and quite special in coloration and markings.
I've contacted Sogo Orchids for more info and send them the pics for identification. Hope they'll reply.
Keep you posted.
By the way, It is custom that an orchid Hybrid here has a pattented name. Why, just rediculous, specialy as the name can be used for an other hybrid some time later, when the original hybrid is not being continued and so the same name could be on different plants in years to come

Ray, Phal Mini Mark is not what I would call a miniature. check this thread: http://www.orchidboard.com/community...riends-do.html the leaf span of the big plant is 35 cm (12") However, it is a great plant

Mini Mark is indeed not a miniature, has pretty small flowers though, love my plant. Flowers keep good a very long time.
