Phal violacea ‘Paisley Park’

[MorandiWine]

I dont have many Phalaenopsis for various reasons, but jumped on the bandwagon on these violacea’s. I mean, why not?! Color, scent and they flower for a long time.

Not the best flowering this year as far as shape and recurve BUT nearly 2x the size from last.

I have never been able to grow these. They always languish and die.

Pretty nice Tyler. I expect I’ll see one someday..

Justin - this is a survivor from a group purchased a while ago. They want it warm to hot and I grow intermediate to cool. They all go on the heat pad in winter under lights with other warm loving plants (Mexipedium etc). This one is potted in 50/50 styro peanuts and moss in a basket and that is in a 4” pot with moss on the bottom. Seems to love this configuration as the bottom of the 4” is loaded with roots. Bright light. Thats all. Lol

Tom- if this one was not recurved…..but I also want to bring it to our JC with more spikes and flowers.

Thanks. Yeah they definitely don't like winter. I thought about trying a heat pad, as I really love these.

The colour of this flower is great .... unfortunately they flower with only few flowers at one spike so you will need a strong plant which produces more spikes in flower simultaniously ..... a flower spike with 10+ of these flowers would be an eye catcher.
