Default Phalaenopsis equestris

This plant was attacked by mealies last year and did not bloom. I finally got rid of them and she's rewarded me.

very pretty.
My equestris has a 10" spike growing horizontally. I have been really nervous to stake it, so haven't. It just looks so awkward. Its also branching.......taking up a lot of shelf space !

Beautiful colors on your equestris. Good job, saving it from the mealies. I really need to get an equestris.

Congrats on saving your plant form the mealies. I have one of these and I love it, it seems to like me too... Compared to some of my other Phals that just want to give me a hard time!

Nice! I was thinking about getting after reading that they are one those "everblooms". Do they really bloom profusely out of regular phal season?
