Default Violacea var. Sumatra
This is my oldest and most favourite Phal. I got it from Oak Hill in July, 2008 as a seedling. Nine leaves, flower size is 5.2 cm x 5.8 cm.







Cheers.
Jim

I'm no big fan of Phal. violacea, but man that FOLIAGE! It makes we want to pat it.

Wonderfully healthy looking phal you've got there. Great growing!

Wow, you sure grew the little seedling into a gorgeous healthy plant! And such a beautiful bloom! It's a very nice violacea.
