    Default Phal Princess Violet

    This is a cross of a primary hybrid Princess Kaiulani (violacea x amboinensis ) back to violacea. Thflowers are just slightly bigger than a violacea, measuring 4cm x 3cm ( approx 1 3/4 x 1 1/2 ins). We are now into our cooler months and many of the species Phal are spiking/blooming and even a large white, only 2 flowers unfortunately.

    Lovely color I dont think I can differentiate with the species the spike is very long could be the violacea is variety Mentawai.
