    Default My feel better buy, Phal. Dor. Chumpornensis

    Here is the little cute Mini Phalaenopsis I bought to cheer me up as my Cattleya is having a yellow sheath. I hope you like the bloom. It has three spikes.

    It is Phalaenopsis pulcherrima var. alba 'Chumpornensis', a peloric form. A cute flower.
    When the plant will grow, it will not be a "mini" Phalaenopsis. It frequently produces basal keikis.

    Does that mean next time it flowers it will have a different look like all white? Or will the flower stay the same? I think it looks cute.

    Very cute! Yes, the flowers will look the same/have the same colors when it blooms again.

    The Doritis orchids are a great group of plants. Love the form and bright colors on yours. AL

    Congrats Gabriela!

    I'va got the same plant, the blooms of each flower last for almost a week but the best is the spike are continious on prducing buds, my 2 plants both have more than 2 feet of spike and still blooming, they also have juicy basal keikis that i can't wait to grow and separate.
