Lowes Phalaenopsis with spotted leaves

[aliceinwl]

I know a definitive ID isn’t possible, but I picked up a double of these Phals on discount due to a broken pot. They have a subtle sweet scent and remind me a lot of the Jiaho’s Pink Girl mini I got earlier last year. The leaves on these are much bigger with a really nice spotted pattern. I’ve been tempted to get another Jiaho’s Pink Girl, but whatever these are, I like them even more.

I like to have even best guess IDs because it will give me somewhere to start in terms of hunting up a replacement in the event I lose one. But, I’m not finding a good match for these. I almost like the leaves more than the flowers.

Best I can do is say it is a hybrid that likely contains one or more "parents" in the P. stuartiana / schilleriana group.

I know there's no way to know for sure, but both Phal. Palm Coast 'Speckle' (Cassandra x schilleriana): Images of Phal. Palm Coast 'Speckle' (Cassandra x schilleriana) and Phal. Pinlong Cheris 'Sakura' (Rothschildiana x Timothy Christopher):Images of Phal. Pinlong Cheris 'Sakura' (Rothschildiana x Timothy Christopher) look like good contenders or near identical plants to mine in any case.
