Hi members,
I try not to purchase NoID's but sometimes there are deals you just can't pass. Our local Lowe's was having a 1/2 off the marked down 1/2 off, making a $15.00 orchid worth $3.75. Purchased one for our living room, a really healthy plant with mid-sized yellow / apple-green petals with strikingly vivid Raspberry Pink spots. It is somewhat unusual, so I thought someone may have a lead on a possible name?
Here are some photo's to view -

Not bad for a cheap orchid, huh? Thanks, and as always I appreciate any info on this!

I dont think I've ever seen that color combination yet.

Our Lowe's is pretty much shut down for the winter as far as plants go but they did have an amazing splash colored phal.

Very very nice, and what a great price!! Harlequin Phals are quite common, so while unusual with the spots compared to the usual lot of Phals, it's still not easy to name it.

Great that it still has some blooms on it! Is that a new spike that can be seem in the first photo?

Yes camille, that is another bloom spike; as I said the health of the plant was amazing for the price - I am usually seeing half-dead phalaenopsis for the marked downs, but this time they has some really healthy ones out!
