This Is A NOID Miniature Phalaenopsis that I Would like ...
...to buy another. The flowers start as a red bud. But it opens into a pink flower overall with deeper pink colors in the center fanning out to white edges. The plant has been growing in an eastern window but the leaves remain dark green. A new leaf is coming out reddish. The underside of the leaves are dark green with deep red tint. Do you know what this plant is named? and where can I get another one but with an identification. Sorry for the photo quality, I'm using my iPad to take and post this picture.

Hi, so beauty ur Phalaenopsis Miniature. They usually come without identification because they're hybrids, it's normal the reddish color in the leaves this happens when they get more clarity

On another board I found a similar plant and I have ordered it! It is a Jaiho's Pink Girl (P. Schileriana x Zuma's Pixie). The plant is also very fragrant.

The picture isn't too clear to tell.
Does your plant have silver mottled leaves??

Without an ID/name tag, positive ID is impossible.
If a close guess is acceptable..........

Based on input provided, I ordered the named plant that bears similar characteristics. When that plant arrives I'll be able to comtrast and compare.

If leaves are mottled, it is for sure! if not, still could be as there are variations. I read people talking about it in the past here.
