    Default The Phal orchid that has started my new addiction.

    It's a NOID, but I'm in love with these blooms.

    I have always loved this color pattern in Phals. I call it a sunset shade. It is by no means new, but since its first inception it has improved in shape and the colors have intensified. I think it came from crossing the German line-bred pinks with a yellow.
