My Phals are running a bit late this year, and one by one are reaching full bloom. I pulled out all my photo gear over the weekend to do a lengthy photoshoot.
The first is Phal lueddemanniana. It's blooming off last year's two spikes and a new one is half grown. And it smells wonderful! I do have doubts about the ID, the patterns don't quite match what I see online. Thoughts?
Next is Phal Pink Panther. This is a trade name unfortunately, and I never found the proper registered name. Blooms are waxy and long lasting (5-6 months) and the plant flowers very freely, to the point that I have to force it to rest and divert energy to growth. There are 4 spikes on this one.
Last one is Phal Wiganiae, a primary hybrid of schilleriana and stuartiana, and it's one of my favorites.

Camille, I don't have any photo equipment at all, and I'm planning on photographing 24 phals that I have in bloom right now. All I have is my phone I'm not sure how I'm going to go about this, but I do know that (perhaps because they're taken on my phone) I can't upload any more than 3 at a time. I can't wait to post them though, and hopefully I'll get someone here to help identify a couple of them...
