Newly in bloom, 3-24

[jkofferdahl]

I have three new pretties in bloom today, two of which are previous bloomers for me.

Phal. mannii. I think the flower looks a bit stronger this year:


Phal. philippinense. I didn't expect any flowers this year because the plant is ailing a bit from my move. These were stronger last year:


Phal. zebrina. I hope that someone more expert than I can tell me how this differs from Phal. sumatrana. When I hold the two together I can't see any major differences, though the zebrina's lip may have slightly heavier striping and is a bit flatter:


Thanks for looking!
