Hello, I got this plant 3 years ago on a bargin rack it looked like a mini, so I had to get it. I was wondering if any one has any idea of what it could be. The tag was gone. I think when they put them on the bargin rack they remove the tags, because none of them on the rack had tags.

I now has a 11 inch LS.
The flower spike is 2 ft long , it has up to 3 flowers open at one time. Then it grow some more, then up to 3 more open. It has been blooming from the same spike all this time.
The flowers are 2.5 inch across.
Here is 2 pictures of the plant .

I don't know what hybrid it is but the flowers are quite pretty unlike the usual common Phals. Are the flowers fragrant?

You don't see em like that at Home Depot very often. Unfortunately there's a zillion noid phals out there.

Hey Eric, I have the exact same plant in bloom right now and I don't have it's name either but mine didn't come from Home Depot the tag it has says Red Speckled semi peloric some one wrote in pencil I may have gotten it from ebay but really dosen seem like a HD plant. It's a large plant Leaves are 11 inches each. good growing plant I just enjoy it. most of all my Phals. are named so I don't mind a few that aren't. Ray

Hello mine came from a nursery. they have a 1/2 price rack. the tag that is in the picture is when it was repoted.

Ray - I love the shape of the flowers, and does yours open 3 blooms at a time. If I ever figure out its name I will let you know. How long have you had yours? Do you have any idea what the parents could be?

Ray could you post a picture of yours?

Thanks for the information.

Hey Eric I have five flowers open for two months one is just starting to fade but new buds are also just starting to develop. I don't have a camera but if I take some pictures the old fashioned way and ever get themdeveloped I could send you an email with an attached pic. It may be awhile but if I remember i wll do that.I've had this plant three years now, Really one of my better growing Phals. Ray
