    Default Phal. cornu-cervi

    I thought you might enjoy a comparison between 2 Phal. cornu-cervi I have blooming right now. Both were repotted recently, but doesn't seem to phase them. In fact, are probably blooming more vigorously .

    This is the typical form



    This is the flava form

    Nice, love how they shine. I have one marked "red" that is currently in spike. Very interested to see what color I get with it.

    Very nice! I can't decide which I like best. I'd have to go with the traditional probably, I'm a sucker for spots and markings on phals. Do these have a nice smell? If so they'd be just about jumping in my cart!

    Yes, please share pictures. I have a red one too, but is still a baby.

    Do these have a nice smell? If so they'd be just about jumping in my cart!
    They are supposed to be fragrant, but no matter how often I sniff, I don't smell anything. Could be just me

    Send it to me! hehehe
    The yellow one has a keiki coming .

    I have the traditional, the flava, the red otherwise known as the "chattaladae" variety and one "alba" variety. They are still growing and am hoping they will flower soon.
