Yup, I had forbidden myself from buying any other Phal other than equestris 'Orange' so
how on earth did my humble collection suddenly increase by one? And another Noid at that?
I went to the local florist's shop to buy bigger pots to my poor Phals that are in the middle of being re-potted, and decided to take a quick look at their orchids. Just a quick one mind you. Unfortunately, it seems as they had just refilled their stock so there were a lot more orchids than at my last visit. Among all the other Noid Phals I spotted this little darling, with its pale pink petals and warm and bright yellow parts of the mouth. It was love at first, second and third sight. Not only did I like the flowers, the rest of the Phal was in excellent shape as well with healthy looking roots, foliage and three spikes.
In other words, I couldn't leave without it, thus it now stands in my living room on a private windowsill (quarantine) looking cute.
