Phal tetraspis 'C #1'
I bought this a few months back at the Tamiami Show and Sale from an Asian vendor. I love how each of the three flowers is completely different in the amount of color it has. It's interesting, at least to me, how different the flower shapes are also. It will be fun to see what happens as the plant matures.

This is one of my favorites. I have a speciosa which I think these two are one in the same.
Yours is beautiful.

Gorgeous! Me too I love how the markings are always different. I've been wanting one for ages, but they are more expensive.

I bought from the same vendor this weekend at the Glencoe Show, very healthy and with a spike.
I now have the C#1's for speciosa and tetraspis, so I will be able to side-by-side judge if they are one and the same species ( my  ) because there is a lot of dispute about it on the internet. Anyway they are stunning and flowers can vary from year to year as well as flower to flower. |

Very beautiful flowers. I got one from ten shin gardens too, but mine didn't spike yet.
Hope it will be as interesting as yours.
