Lovely blooms. The light pastel colors give it an interesting focus. Hopefully, the petals will open up more and flatten.

Thanks WhiteRabbit and Bud.
Bud, I don't know if they will open more this time round. My orchids are having to make do with pretty low humidity as we are under renovation and it is hotter and drier in the greenhouse than usual. We need to do some caulking before the shade cloth can go on and should have been on a few weeks ago. So I'm just lucky to have blooms from a Milt! I hope they can all hang on till conditions are better. This one is now in the house while in bloom and its been open for a few days, so I don't expect them to open wider.

Gorgeous! I love the dark maroon center with its crisp 'paint drooping' pattern.

Such nice colors!!! And it's a great photo too. I hope that I can rebloom my Milt, now that I've gotten it to thrive.

That is exactly the same as the one I wanted to buy.
When I got 4 new miltoniopsis last week, the store had this same one in full bloom, so I took one in bud that showed a little bit of white thinking it would be the same one.
It is a red one with wide white edge on the flower. still like it. love yours very much!
