Default Phal. violacea var. sumatra
This is one of the two Phals I ordered from a Swedish vendor and that I picked up after work today. I also got my little Phal. Zuma's Pixie, but since it's too dark to get a decent picture of it I'll wait until I'll be able to.

Onwards; this is my very first violacea and I must say I like it very much (it matches my Equalacea! ) and I really hope the flower will last after it being shipped and all. I won't repot it now since I really don't want to disturb it too much. If any other wonderfully coloured violaceas appear in the future, I might purchase some more, we'll see if I can get this one to survive first though.

Beautiful bloom. I like the solid purple color with just a hint of yellow. Looks like you got a very healthy plant!

Thanks guys! I think the colour in the pictures are a tad too blue though, it's more cerise than purple I would say. It has opened its second flower and I think the shape is better on this one and the colour is more accurate in regards to what it looks like IRL.
