phal. equestris var.....
 

hi everybody,

just have a little question about the different "looks" of equestris.

there are.. alba, aurea, rosea, leucothante, blue lip, and some more...

for aurea, it is said that the whole lip has to be yellow. as for leucothante it is just a littleeee bit yellow...
but that sometimes is said about aurea too. so... what is really the difference between aurea and leucothante.

I have about 10 equestris at home.... and there are 2 of them that fit to none of the names above.
the lip is in "rainbowcolours" ..lol
