New Phalaenopsis hybrids


We're slowly starting to see some of our new phalaenopsis hybrids beginning to open their blooms. It seems like an interminable wait between spotting a new spike emerging until the first buds open. These are two siblings from a cross using a dark rose/red and a white with a red lip. Both seedlings have pretty good bud counts and branching spikes. The paler pink flower on the left shows slight feathering on the petals.
