My weakness - the species in phals. I snubbed my nose at phals in my early orchid growing because I had several white ones, a couple pink ones, a spotted purple one and a striped one. How many does one person need?

But then I fell in love with the species :>)

Doritis pulcherrima
Phal. aphrodite (2)
Phal. cornu-cervi 'Chin Yo'
Phal. cornu-cervi v. flava
Phal. phillipinensis
Phal. stuartiana 'Sogo' (2)
Phal. micholitizii (2)
Phal. amboinensis (white bloom)
Phal. amboinensis (yellow bloom)
Phal. violacea v. alba
Phal. violacea "blue" (2)
Phal. javanica
Phal. luddemaniana
Phal. bastiani (Pearl)
Phal. gigantea (2)
Phal. pulchra
Phal. bellina (4) (different crosses)
Phal. hieroglyphica
Phal. lobbii
Doritis v. chompornensis
Phal. fasciata
Phal. equestris (2)
Phal. schilleriana
Phal. x leucorrhoda
Phal. tetraspis
Phal. tetraspis v. speciosa
Phal. doweryensis
Phal. floresensis 'TH'
Phal. pallens 'Tejas'
Phal. celebensis

I also have several primary crosses that do not have a grex name yet and am anxiously waiting for them to bloom. This summer should be outstanding in the species/primary hybrid bloom season. The ability to bloom from previous year's spikes and new spikes always makes the bloom season special.
