Congrats on the awards! And wow wow, you sure have an amazing collection of Phals, all in bloom too! Lucky you to have such a great climate for them.
Just a minor correction, since Phal schilleriana is a species, schilleriana should be written with a lowercase 's'. Uppercase is for hybrids.

Even in Florida you still have great weather for orchids! So are you originally from the Philippines then?

@Bill/Susie and orchideya thanks for the compliment and BTW how did i convince them to all bloom at the same time ? not me probably the weather here in florida after all the heat... comes the cold part like December and because of this drop in temperature everyone of them put on a spike with some orchids having three spikes and from that spikes it branch out to several branches.The first bloom came the month of January and its almost July now and I still have several of them in bloom .They happen to bloom all together because Phals bloom usually last 3 or more months and they kind of overlap each other.

@ Camille
Yes you are right I'm actually from the Philippines and I remember we have a lot of Phal schilleriannas then but I need to learn how to grow them here as Florida has a slightly different kind of weather compared to the Philippines as I have to take them inside if the temp falls below 30 while over there they are just left outside all year round ..

WOW! You have a spectacular show of blooms !
I love them shillies....especially the leaves....
I have many orchids originating from the Philippines but sadly I dont have a shillie(I am constantly looking for a specimen and all they have available are seedlings)....
