Violacea var. Sumatra
 
This is my oldest and most favourite Phal. I got it from Oak Hill in July, 2008 as a seedling. Nine leaves, flower size is 5.2 cm x 5.8 cm.

I'm no big fan of Phal. violacea, but man that FOLIAGE! It makes we want to pat it. :shock:

Wonderfully healthy looking phal you've got there. Great growing! :nod:
