Strange Phalaenopsis with two lips

[MallornTree]

Wow! Your mini pha sounds really interesting too! Please keep me updated about your virus testing. I think you're on the right track suspecting the peloria is caused by either unstable genetic traits that may possibly caused by a virus. I will wait and see how the other buds look like. It was also strange when my phal was developing because usually the flower bud is entirely closed until the flower blooms. However, with this peloric one, I could see the 'whiskers' of the lip protruding out as the bud was developing. Quite strange indeed.
