Phalaenopsis Lirpa in full bloom

 Wow, what a showstopping fireworks display it was on this charming miniature fragrant primary hybrid! The latest and best bloom cycle happened June 2021. So far, this phalaenopsis only blooms once a year in the springtime and each bloom last about a month. However, with so many spikes and blooms, the whole plant can be in bloom for several months at a time.

My good friend and fellow orchidist, Drew Goddard of This Side of Paradise Orchids hybridized and registered (2018) this incredible phalaenopsis and I am so lucky to have this specimen in my collection. The parents are Phalaenopsis inscriptiosinensis × Phalaenopsis modesta.
