Harliquins can be of any color with spots as the following show:





Here are some links to where the term possibly originated.

Hi Ethan! Yes yours is considered a harlequin Phal. The interesting thing about these types is they look different every time they bloom. No two spots are alike.

You're right, terri - each flower is different - the spots are never in the same place. I love an orchid that can surprise you every time it blooms!

Thanks for the info, doc - you're quite a wealth of information!

I hope they develop harlequins with other color spots! Purple is nice but I'd rather have red or pink!
