Unique looking phal - any ideas? Female
Default Unique looking phal - any ideas?
So I found this really unique phal at Home Depot yesterday and bought it. At least, I think it's a phal. There was no tag. I'm guessing it's probably NOID.

Anyone have a clue what this beauty might be? I'm so excited to have it.

It is a Phal indeed now the ruffles are caused by the peloria on the Phal. In this case the petals try to mimic the lip but they quite didn't become full lips. It is still beautiful !!!! Congrats on the find.

Those weird nubs on the two front petals reminds me of those nose bridge piercings. it's very beautiful even for being a little punk rock
