Lol. Thats like asking which one of your kids you like most!
Honestly I like the super dark ones and multifloral.
But if I were to have to pick one of the plants that have flowered for me so far it would have to be phrag Don Wimber 4N. I've owned this plant for 4 plus years and it never fails! Last year was 25 consecutive blooms, I repotted in April and its bloomed again just not so many🧡

I think that is Don Wimber in the first photo? Brilliant and substantial! I had no idea that Phrags bloomed sequentially. I am also quite struck with that Tate Olsen. The Phrags are beautiful but I am trying to impose some limits to my addiction and genera boundaries seem a natural stopping point. 😂 What an awesome bloom room you have made.

Thank you so much!! I am very proud of my room and dont get to show it off much! I too am imposing limits as 300 plus is getting kinda much...lol
Wife and me kind of decided slippers and smellies are the limit so a crazy amount of slippers and a plethora of smellies! Cats, zygos, some novelty phals and milts fill in the smellies.
Yes that is Don Wimber (orange) in the first pic!
Most phrags are sequential bloomers that I know of, one of the reasons I like them. Fireworks has 3, 4 and 5 out with 6th bud opening real soon
 
Oh my goodness! 300! I wouldn't have a place to sleep. 😂 I was admiring fireworks. I should have put together that it was a Phrag and blooming sequentially 🤗 But if I were to transgress my self imposed limitations it would be for that Tate Olsen. I am smitten. I think it was also in this room that I saw that pretty white Paph Joseita #2. Lots to admire here. Thanks for sharing them.

Of course you are welcome, I love to share...lol
Yes Joseita #2 was in flower, just lost the last of three flowers a couple of days ago.
The cycle never ends, three of about 6 or 7 paphs in low bud. Also 3 or 4 phrakes in different levels of spike!
