Phalaenopsis bellina (= old phal violacea borneo)

Unfortunately, the confusion of P. Bellina with Violacea (not borneo) led to the sale of bellina who are not bellina but samera (bellina x violacea).

Many phal labelled bellina that I see on the forums are actually samera!
Nevertheless, they are beautiful

Very nice flower on that one....I esp. love the little spindle things on the tips of the petals. I may be partial...but I vote for Becky's!

Well now I like the twisty way the petals look on this one....very cute! Sorry, I didn't mean to turn it into a contest...I like all of these 'Bellina' phals. Pretty and smells great, a great combo in any phal.
