Question Aphrodite or Amabilis? You decide.

I KNOW there's at least one person on here who is well versed on this particular subject.

Found this beauty at a grocery store of all places a few weeks ago (I was stunned, I've never seen species there!).

The tag says "Phal. Amabilis v. formosa 'Taida Masayuki'"
I was able to track it down on the vendor's site:

I've looked at these pages explaining the amabilis vs. aphrodite, but I'm still on the fence.
phalaenopsis amabilis anglais


So whatcha think? I think she's stunning either way.
Having a ball in my south window- her leaves immediately perked up and turned a much nicer dark lime green.

Also- what does the formosa/formosana variation do anyways? I can't see a difference.
