Unusual Phal; with 3 columns?
Hello all,
Does anyone know the name of this Phal? I bought it at Publix because it was the most unusual Phal that I've seen. Any help is greatly appreciated!

No, I couldn't figure out how to upload. Thanks for replying. But it really is an odd flower.

There are several ways to get the pics into your post...
Here are some links to instructions, if you haven't seen them.

Since I don't see a picture yet I suspect it sounds like a peloric phal . Check out this site and see if it is.

I have 1 peloric and it is really different. It is a species plant.

Well it seems you got my pun.
Just to clarify, by Column, I mean the structure that holds the pollenia and stigma of the flower. Located just above the lip.
