That is beautiful! How high is your humidity now? Do you grow it in your new orchidarium? Can you post a picture of the whole plant? Thanks

Thank you Ezil!
I am still waiting for my orchidarium, they said about two months. For now my phals live in the humidity trays with clear domes. They keep 80-85% humidity.
I will take a pic of the plant tomorrow.

Pictures of the whole plant
Here are the pics of my plant. It came with two spikes and grew two new ones. The leaf got broken during shipment. One of the new spikes I broke myself, accidentally of course.

Thanks Orchideya. That looks like quite a big plant. Do you plan on putting it in your orchidarium?

Thanks!
Ezil, it is not that big, the pot is only 2 1/2 inch. It survived some root rot and I downpotted it. Now it grew new roots and seems ok. Lucky it was spring-summer time when phals boost their growth. I think this species is very tough - it kept producing buds and spikes having most of the roots rotted.
Yes, this one definitely goes to orchidarium. I ordered orchidarium mostly for phals because they suffer from my lowish humidity.
