Default Obsession increasing almost daily!

I'm fairly new to orchids, within the last 4 months. My favorites are phals. I have 3 at the moment. A white phal that just finished flowering, a mini I believe to be badan's kaleidoscope (which I successfully hand pollinated from the white phal), and a bellina. I also have a compot of bellina's on their way from Malaysia, and convinced my girlfriend we needed another white phal

Baldan's Kaleidoscope is not a mini - mine is at least 5 years old, has about 15 leaves and is a giant.
If you really want to blow your mind, go to a nursery that specialises mainly in orchids - you will be like a kid in a candy store


meant to add that I also pollinated my Baldan's - the seed capsule is relatively large - about 4" - and is now almost 6 months old, nearly ready to send to the lab.

Thanks everyone! I really don't know what I've gotten myself into, but it's exciting! I'm currently doing plenty of research and plan on trying to flask on my own.
