Phalaenopsis equestris Dec 2009

Hi ron,
- Thanks for posting this equestris. I love them !
- You told me that it comes from Samar. This is an interesting clue. You know my interest for that species and its colored varieties. Many of them are cited in literature and we all know the classical alba, aurea, albescens, rosea, cyanochilus or blue lip, leucotanthe, leucaspis, etc ...
- But, some sellers on comercial sites, use names of localties to identify their clones like 'Samar', 'Ilocos', etc ...
- Does anyome has articles on this subject ? it would be intesresting to share that information. Thanks in advance !
