    Congrats on the fantastic bloom!
    I really like it!
    Do you give it the same conditions as you phal hybrids? Phal gigantea has a reputation of being 'difficult' to grow.

    Thanks guys. So far the flowers have lasted at least a month--with no signs of fading anytime soon. (Assuming I can kill my recent thripes visitors).

    Miki--yes, I grow it right along with my other phals.

    Miki--I should add that I have to be really careful not to get water in the crown or leave water on the leaves. This plant does NOT like either. Also it gets a little less light than my other phal hybrids. So, I guess it does have some specific needs, but they really aren't too bad. It also has more erect leaves than a gigantea--so it is potted up, not mounted.
