Thanks, Kathy. Lycaste form it is. I like it because it is different and it was a lot of plant for the money. I only saw this one among the thousands of Phals in Apopka. There were about a dozen plants like it and I chose the biggest, strongest looking one. I just wish they had the names attached.

Ursula, I know Peloric has something to do with the lip petal mimicking the other petals or something like that. Please bring me up to speed and how would I determine if mine is really peloric or lycaste or just a freak?

Jim
