Absolutely gorgeous, and I have to reconfirm what Orchid Sue says, (got the same book). Thanks for sharing.

They are two different forms. The flava form is the yellow with paler yellowish instead of darker brown markings.

Thanks Susan. Look's like I need to get a copy of it.

Nice! do post a picture of it soon :D:D:D

I love to get one flava form but yet to find a nice piece, or one breeder willing to sell their precious plant. Much of the breeders in South East Asia still believes strongly in hybridization, and only a couple of novelty phals here are cloned.;)
