Phal. Pink Panther
 

Here's one of my favorite Phals, Pink Panther! This is just a trade name though (looks nothing like the registered plant by that name) and I never figured out if it even has a proper name. Anyway, I love it. :)
This is my best bloomer. It makes only a few blooms at a time, but blooms forever! Started flowering December 2008, and bloomed non stop off the existing spikes and some new spikes for over 2 and a half years!! Individual blooms, which are thick and waxy, last 4-6 months. It took a 6 month break, and then all the spike woke up again, either the tips or new side spikes. Now has 5 blooms on it (sadly a bunch of buds blasted), plus 3 keikis.

I LOVE IT!!! great job camille! too bad it doesnt have a proper name :( because i would like to get one!

I have tried and tried, but no luck... This was a very common hybrid in Europe back around when I got it, and I just can't find any clues as to its real name, if it even has one. :(

thats a shame :(

Actually I've never seen a pic of the registered Pink Panther, but on Orchidwiz I can see the species that compose it, and none of them would give the blooms such heavy substance, nor the barring (32% schilleriana, 39% amabilis/rimestadiana, 16% sanderiana, 11% aphrodite, <2% stuartiana). Thus my conclusion that they are NOT the same plant.

yeah thats definitely not the same plan, lol! this one has tetraspis or speciosa or hyroglyphica or something like that for the spotting.

:agree:


it's fabulous!

Love it! :drool:

That's a beauty Camille.

Beautiful blooms!
