phalaenopsis stuartiana

[jade_orchid]

I love this species! It always seems to be at home and happy in my garden. It flowered so profusely in multibranching spikes last two months ago- and this is what's left of the flowers at this point of time.

Very pretty and all those spots!

Very pretty....is that the leaf of your Phal stuartiana in the upper right...and where does your phal call home?

[jade_orchid]

This phal came from the Philippines - closely related to P.Schilleriana in its habit and culture requirements. Yes, the leaves are also striped with silvery green. Likes warmth and humidity and some shade. The flowers are nicely scented like crisp rose. It should bloom at least twice a year.

Pretty. I moved your thread to the Phalaenopsis photo section of the forum.

The whole plant is beautiful - blooms, leaves and all.

Mine is currently in spike. Would love to have mine branch but my stu is still a lil fella.

Very, very nice. That one is definitely going on my must have list.

Love it!! The mottled leaves are great to make it more attractive when it's not in bloom.

Hey Jade, I knew the orchid's place of origin ...I wanted to know your location because it appears you grow outside...maybe my mistake....thanks
