Phal. (Hawaiian Clouds 'Hawaii' x Yukimai 'Tinny')

[Gilda]

phal on steroids ! What is your fertilizer ?
Are all your orchids outside, and how do you handle too much rain...I notice the phal is tipped and water shouldn't stand in the crown....

[Lore]

Oh very lovely

[Sue]

Yeah, it's tipped so the water can run out of the crown.

All the non-Pleuro/Masdies are outside for the summer. Some of them suffer a bit, including the Phals. It gets too hot for them, and they suffer leaf damage from it sometimes. This one had to go outside, though, as I couldn't get it close enough to a window to get enough light, and I certainly wasn't going to keep the metal halide bulb going all summer.

It gets fertilized about once a month, with a relatively balanced fert. Cheap stuff, nothing special. It needs new sphag in there.
