Share some photos of your favorite orchids!

Thanks Early for mentioning your favourite orchid flower colours are yellows and dark purple. I'm a big fan of purple and/or violet colours.

I missed a chance of acquiring a phal last year, which had such a grand majestic deep purple colour. Velvety look - very majestic. It got my attention - not just the colour, but the flower shape, texture etc. It was a no-name phal from big-name groceries supermarket. They often have various phals for sale, but this one seemed out of the ordinary.

Unfortunately, the spur-of-the-moment buying mode didn't kick in, which was seriously disappointing this time. When I DID decide to go back the next day - purposely to buy it, it was no longer there. A photo of that flower would definitely have been posted here if I hadn't made my 'mistake' (in not buying it when I had that one-time chance).

There is one nice thing though - the memory of having seen it, and encountered it!!!!
