Hi guys, I'm new to the forums. If you want my life story please check out my post in the Introductions forum hehe. Anyways, I'm looking for some help IDing these Phals.
The first two pictures are of the very first orchid which my sister bought for me at a local grocery store in Florida in 2004. It's special to me because it's the orchid that started it all for me. It has light pink petals and sepals which intensify to a darker pink toward the column. The lip goes from a hot pink to a hot red to a golden color.
Sorry the pictures are not that great, I took these last year and wasn't intending on using them for identification but thats all I have right now. It hasn't bloomed yet this year but has two spikes growing. It has re-bloomed like crazy every year since I've had it. I realize that a lot of hybrids don't even have names and it's really hard to ID them because there are so many but I thought I might put this out there in case anyone knows. It seems like a pretty common color pattern to be sold in grocery stores and for the mass market. It blooms off of old spikes and ususally only keeps two healthy leaves at a time if that helps at all. I'm interested in knowing what it is because this year It's not in as good of shape as it was and I thought perhaps if I knew what it is I could research it better.
The third picture is an orchid I bought at the WOC but the tag just had some numbers on it. I looked at pictures online and I think it's a Doritaenopsis Taida Salu. If anyone has ever seen one in real life and could positively identify it please let me know. Thanks!
