Phal Sogo Vivien
Hi Everyone
I've really taken to this little one. She opened up fully around the end of January and has just died back (sorry it's taken a while to post!). You can just about see on one of the pictures that the leaves are variegated, which makes her pretty even without flowers but, I hope you'll agree, she's pretty great with flowers!

I love vivien! I want one so badly... I see you got the variegated version, too. Where did you get it?

I got it from here: Orchideen und Orchideenzubehör der Schwerter Orchideenzucht but it doesn't look like they have any at the moment (and Germany to Colorado is a bit of a trek for it anyhow)
Hope you find one, it'll be worth it when you do

A Sogo Vivien was one of the earliest casualties of my learning curve 2 years ago, but I remember it fondly as a super prolific bloomer. I do want to get a new one with the variegated leaves like yours, which Big Leaf and Norman's had recently.
