Phalaenopsis philippinensis blooming
I had counted over 100 buds, I'm not sure how many have bloomed but its quite a show. It is one plant, but its one plant with a few basal keikeis connected, its not too clear where each spike comes from
gorgeous pink and yellow. I bought it a little over a year ago and this is the first time flowering for me. Theres also the stuartiana in the background which is bautiful but a little more subtle. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...88a078cb_w.jpgDSCF2424 by Guerrero Orchid, on Flickr https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...8e6f0d84_w.jpgDSCF2440 by Guerrero Orchid, on Flickr https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...63532bf0_w.jpgDSCF2437 by Guerrero Orchid, on Flickr https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...2c4bd020_w.jpgDSCF2436 by Guerrero Orchid, on Flickr https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...b0475eed_w.jpgDSCF2433 by Guerrero Orchid, on Flickr https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...8b1f7f8c_w.jpgDSCF2434 by Guerrero Orchid, on Flickr |
wow!!! nicely done
|
That's a beautiful, natural looking display. Well done.

WOW! Just gorgeous.

That is gorgeous! I was surprised to see pink, since I think of this species as white (one of the foundation species of many, many hybrids.) I looked it up... These do open with a pink blush, which tends to become pure white later. So don't be surprised if floweres turn white - when they will still be spectacular. I suspect that there is a yellow pigment in the petals that develops more slowly, that washes out the pink when it does. Nature does amazing things!

That is incredible!

Beautiful blooms and an inspiring display. Congrats.
