Noid Phal

Found this at the natural food market, and it was so pretty and well grown I picked it up. Any ideas?

Don't know, but sure is beautiful. Maybe has some Balden's Kaleidascope in it?

The last photos is wonderful. Looks like he is saying "hello" hehe... Beautiful, but I do not know his name.

Three months later and still ticking - the terminal buds are now opening and it developed more branches on the spikes (that is one plant with two main spikes - 21 flowers open and 7-9 coming). I had to cut the spikes off of three other Phals to get them to grow some leaves. I trimmed them when I bought them from the post-bloom bargain rack, they flowered again for 6 months and then tried to branch out for a third time from the same spikes without trimming. I guess because it always cools off well at night here?

Every time I see the close (second photo) in post #1 I think 'Beautiful - just beautiful'. I appreciate you sharing the larger photo of all of the blooms. This is an incredible plant - spikes still branching! Nice growing.

Cheers,
