Tea cup Orchids
 
I have a phal I picked up a few months ago off the discount table, it was marked tea cup orchid, my question is this a true mini or will it get big over time, I cleaned it up and cut off the dead roots and re potted it and its growing well in it new home, I want to keep it happy. Just need to know if its really a mini or not :)

I Googled them and the images that came up look identical to the Sogo Vivien which is one of the tiniest and cuttest Phals. I have rescued one myself and find it absolutely adorable. The flowers are the size of my thumbnail yet are so colorful and delicate. And yes the entire plant could easily fit into a cup which I find truly amazing.

I hope I'm correct though and hope others would add some helpful tips.
