![Drool](http://www.orchidboard.com/community/images/smilies/new/drool.gif) really gorgeous. That picture really shows up the orrange and great to see it next to the 'A100' for comparison.

Thank you. I collect phalaenopsis. Last year I had the opportunity to take a photo of several cultivars together.
Of these the darkest colors are 'Hamsphire' and 'Royal Ruby' FCC/AOS. But these two are also the most challenging to grow into larger plant. The largest flowers are 'B#100' and 'Ruby', at about 3.2 cm NS.

Impressive bunch, but I think the orange is really special.

Love the pics!! ![Drool](http://www.orchidboard.com/community/images/smilies/new/drool.gif) I'm a big fan of equestris and am trying to form a collection of them. Orange is super nice, but somewhat expensive here.
Nice to see all your blooms side by side, there is so much variation within Phal equestris!!

I really like the form on var. cyanochilus. I'm like you Camille, I like any equestris.
