Phalaenopsis pulcherrima var. alba
 
Here's an alba variety of Phal. pulcherrima. This is not the peloric alba form that I posted already, which is much more common in collections than the regular alba.

That's very sweet Mauro. It looks like it's smiling! :)

A stately looking bloom. Thanks for posting, another reason I love Phals.

Susanne, I've been growing this little Phal for more than 15 years and am especially fond of it because at a certain time I almost lost it (all the leaves fell off leaving only a bunch of roots). After a long struggle it has recovered and started blooming again!

That's a beautiful flower, and looks very healthy. Thanks for sharing.

Lovely, Mauro :)
But..isn't it a Doritis?:scratchhead:

It used to be, Claudia, but it was reclassified (correctly I agree!) as Phalaenopsis!:)

Thanks for doing so Mauro, now I won't be the only one using the new/correct classification! :biggrin:
