I got this phalaen about one month ago at a local kroger for $12. All of the buds have now bloomed. The flowers and plant are doing well so I'm happy about that.
Lovely flower with vibrant color and you have two spikes so when the blooms are gone, cut only the dead tips; the rest of the healthy nodes will sprout to have your rebloom. Not bad purchase at all.
my new red ruby! I picked this guy up for $5 while i was buying a cymbidium for mother's day. He's pretty beat up with- a not so great root system; floppy leaves; three spikes and some flowers.
