    Default Round Foliage Phal Bellina

    Hi All
    I have a round leave Phal Bellina.
    May I know what is the different between the elongated leave Bellina and round leave Bellina.
    The person who sold me the orchid told me that round leave Bellina is better quality and therefore more expensive.
    I managed to get 1 which approx RM 20 for a very small plant (i.e approx 2-3 inches in size).
    Elongated leaf bellina approx 6-7 inches at RM 20.

    Appreciate your advise.

    Never heard that round leaf foliage on a bellina is 'better'. But, that said, it is cute.

    cheers,

    Sounds like a marketing ploy. Hope you post pictures of flowers when it blooms.
