Purple Phal - Id, please
 

Hello, my friends

I have one these (the pic is not from my plant) and I could never find a name for it.

Could you help me?

Thank you

It's a common but beautiful hybrid Phalaenopsis :)
Only some particular hybrids got a name, so I think that your Phalaenopsis don't have a name :D

If it makes you feel better, you can call it Charlie or Annabelle.

But as Shakespear said, a rose by any other name, would smell as sweet.

Ok, I see... no specific name then.:D

Mine is almost blooming...two more weeks and I'll have some flowers to show.

Thanks

Really, if it didn't come named and id'd by the vendor, I doubt anyone could put a valid name on it. By normal rules, it's simply called a NOID.

Well, the tag identifies only the vendor (Concorde, from Netherland). Nothing more.

One thing that other people have done is this...contact the vendor via email and attach the photo and ask if they can identify it. You might also tell when and where you purchased it.

It's pretty much the only shot. I just got a noid hibiscus identified today. It was noid (and the grower knew it) because of a mixup at their suppliers. Once it flowered, I was able to put a name on it and confirm with the growers. They had flowered some others and knew now most of what they were.

However, lots of orchids look a LOT alike, so I don't think you'll visually id it unless you knew more about the history (thus the growers).

Good sugestion! I tought about that too...when I get my flowers, I'll contact them and see what they say.

Thank you
