I initially thought as alba form of tetrapis but broad petals made me think twice thanks.

That is gorgeous! I love the faint traces of yellow here and there...very pretty!

Absolutely gorgeous!! I love how shiny the blossom is, and I'm just fascinated by that furry little lip! Truly stunning!!

Beautiful - and good for you, Zain, in picking up the faint yellow markings on it on your photos - from the tresaspis?

Very nice but I would have liked to see the colouring patterns of the tetraspis.

Very nice but I would have liked to see the colouring patterns of the tetraspis.

I find it absolutely fascinating how many different patterns the tetraspis can come in. I've seen varieties with a one red petal and one red sepal, with the rest being white; I've seen them with just "bars" of red (that appears to be the type used in this cross), and various different combinations of splotched red tips and such. The reason I haven't bought one yet is that I am looking to get into Phal breeding, and I don't know how these different types will express themselves in a cross. I do tend to gravitate toward the very star-shaped clones that have 2 parts red to 3 parts white, but that may come out looking odd when crossed with a species phal with a more full, graceful form.

I do like how the bars on this one show up a subtle yellow. It's very classy and understated, and it makes for a graceful overall flower. I think, depending on which tetraspis is used for this cross, there's a potential to come out with a splotchy mess... hence why I'm being really careful about which tetraspis I buy. I still haven't decided, but I really like the look of your cross! I think this was a great buy, and one I'd love to have in my collection!

Thanks Jenn I really appreciate it I will recommend you to buy this species as they are free flowering, easy to take care like bellina, pretty smell too it's has so many bars variation and color, as an orchids collector I will try to get as much variations found in this species , so far I never seen many bars most of them that I found very little, anything crossing with Phal micholitzhii always may end up with alba form through my observation Phal. micholitzhii is powerful bleaching agent.You can see my tetraspis collection below:
