Hello everyone. Back in December I stopped at some greenhouse to look around and came across this little guy. He was dying and the people working there planned to trow it out in the trash. I felt bad for it so I took this poor little plant off their hands. To top it off it had spider mites. I soon took care of them :evil:. I think it's a type of Phalaenopsis but hey I could be wrong. I'm really into Paphiopedilum over anything else and he is probably the only none paph orchid I will own. Anyways I've been keeping him in my room to keep an eye on it and this was my surprise. I guess he is happy! I've been wondering what color he would be if he lived :D

 
looks like yellow with purple lip and very healthy now.
Warning - dont become the 'box store' phal pot plant saviour or youll end up with so many from well meaning friends youll have no room for paphs!
 
Some may say not the best looking flower but I say good job hanging in there little guy!:clap:
 
I'm glad you saved it. Good job bringing it it back to good health.
