Wow. Love the contrast in that flower, does it have a name?

The name of this orchid is P. Golden Peaker "BL" x P. (Ching Her Spot x Golden Sun) x Dtps. Brother Spring Moonlight x P. Strawberry Sugar "Brother" Whew is that a mouthful.
The interesting thing is that this flower is different from the original flowers (it has been in bloom since April) on the same stalk. Here is a pic of the original flower. They were much lighter.

Okay, let's have some naming fun.

Phal. Ching Her Spot x Phal. Golden Sun = Phal. Chingruey's Pride

Phal. Golden Peaker (should be Peoker)

Phal. Golden Peoker x Phal. Chingruey's Pride = Phal. Dou-dii Prince

Therefore, you can shorten your phal's name to:

Phal. Dou-dii Prince x (Dtps. Brother Spring Moonlight x Phal. Strawberry Sugar 'Brother')

Not sure if the parentheses are in the right place, but at least it's a bit less to write!

My wife gets credit for the name. That is her that posted the Orchid name in this thread. She picked "failingflopsis". I, being the good attentive husband, just put "Mr." in front of it. I merely play a supporting role to her Orchidiction.

I had told her awhile back I was thinking of starting a group called Orchidnon for enabling family members of those with an orchidiction.:biggrin:

She has really gotten into it in the last 3-4 years.
