Phal lobbii

[Ron-NY]

This is a cute, small species with an articulated lip that wobbles with air movement.

That is cool. Does the lip hinge and close to ensure pollination? Or does it just move to attract pollinators?

Nice Ron! I recently bought a parishii x lobbii in spike. Hopefully I won't kill it. Mine is mounted. Looks like yours is potted. How moist do you keep yours? The leaves are so much thinner than most phals, I wonder if keeping mine moister would be wiser.

I have a mounted one as well. I water it 2X per week but it get's good humidity. Moast of the roots are outside of the pot so they dry quickly.

Cute, well done! Too small for me... (Never buy an orchid you need your reading glasses to see!!!)

Very interesting lip there....I wonder why it has this kind of mechanism
