Hi Matt! Owe you a pic. Hey I went to my orchid supplier over the weekend and saw a couple of Phal Gigantea (I don't have one) which was mounted on pine bark. It looked like it was doing fine, though it wasn't blooming. I have one larger phal which doesn't look large now cause it dropped most of its' leaves and is struggling. Completely forgot about the reply. Will take a few pics and PM you over this coming weekend.

An equestris, small modesta in first pic and Hanover passion in second. The ordinary moth phal isn't doing well mounted. All the violacea n Bellina love being mounted

Very nice Debra! I really like your composition including your Dendrobium with this Phal. It gives you an idea how large or small the flowers are for either species.

Haha tks Matt. Purely by accident. They are in the wild area at the back of my house and subject to rougher conditions than those on the balcony.

Pictures taken at different times of the day with different light. It looks more blue in real life.

Lovely! I wish more people could see your plant debrasoon. This is an example of those Phalaenopsis where you keep the flower spike and NOT snip it off.
