Late March 2015. Purchased this on my second visit to the Flower Show this year. Originally called a neofinetia but now a vanda - possibly a Vanda Lou Sneary x Vanda coerulea. Has the same amazing fragrance as the white one!

Phalaenopsis Orchids in spike
Late April 2015. The pink Phal has finally opened its first flower!
It seems like all the spikes are taking a long time mature - perhaps because the weather has actually remianed quite cool.
The colour of this Phal varies quite a lot (probably due to the temperature). This is a picture of the flowers from 2 years ago - very different colouring!
My large pink Phal which has survived a number of years with me and has always produced amazing multi-branched spikes, nearly died last year partly because I didn't repot it soon enough (I think) and partly due to damp rot. But it seems to have bounced back very quickly and has just rewarded me with a lovely new strong spike...
