Bleghhh phals..
they are also artificially coloured, it says it on the site.

you should look into species more. there are various species that have blue / violet colored flowers.

dendrobium delicatulum is the first one that comes to mind having a blue form.
also dendrobium cyanocentrum has a blueish form.

I love phals and absolutely ADORE genuinely blue flowers, but these just look trashy and fake. Anyone who is disappointed when these rebloom white deserves what they get.

I've seen these "blue" orchids before, and I dislike them even more in person that in pics. If the color hadn't been so unnatural looking it could be nice, I could almost like a baby blue dyed plant for instance. Still , all you end up with is a very expensive white phal.
