Default Phalaenopsis tetraspis

The color mark on these plants must all vary. This is the first time this seedling has bloomed for me. I had to grow it for about two years to get these flowers. I read somewhere that it was a summer bloomer but it is not summer yet. The texture is very heavy and waxy as you can see in the shine on the petals.

Nice Jerry! The first time mine bloomed it was all white. Someone said it can take them a few bloom cycles to find their blotches.

Lovely little thing. Once they get going, they can bloom just about any time. Don't cut the spike, as it can rebloom for quite a while.
