Shipping within Germany is 6,50€, and anywhere in the EU is 8,50€. I was thinking of you the other day when I was looking at what he had for sale of on ebay because he had a 5 spiked Phal equestris for 15€. I know you really want one of those!

Excellent color on this one Camille! I really like it.

Camille, that's a beautiful bloom. Are the flowers fragrant? Since I've read that this species can handle (or, perhaps, actually prefers) cool to intermediate temperatures in the winter, it's probably one of the only phalaenopsis species that I can grow. Would you mind providing a picture of the entire plant whenever you have an opportunity, please? Thank you.

Steve

Sorry for the long delay in answering, I'm just so incredibly busy lately. The blooms aren't fragrant as far as I can tell. And the fact that it needs a cool-intermediate winter is one of the reasons I got this phal. Normally it should adapt well to my conditions.
Here's a photo of the entire plant. I've been meaning to repot since I got it, but just can't find the time. The roots are starting to push the plant up and out of the pot!

She's a beauty, Camille. Thank you for the picture!
