Arrow Dtps. Newberry Parfait 'Picotee'

Many of us are trying to find orchids that will bloom more than once a year.
I ordered this phal from Carter and Holmes. According to their catalog, this phal is suppose to form one spike after another throughout the year, blooming at various times. Do any of you have one of these?

Here's the link for their free catalog. Even with a DSL line, it takes about a minute to download, but worth your time. If nothing else, you get to go window shopping and see some pretty orchids.

I know that Jerry has noted in several threads that he has had this hybrid phal bloom for 18 months nonstop!

I have a noid phalenopsis that has been in bloom since mid January, shows no sign of slowing down yet, now in the last week it has thrown out another flower spike.

I have a descendant of it: Dtps.Newberry Parfait Picotee X Fajens Fireworks AM-AOS, hopefully this hybrid inherited the quality of ever-bloomer from its parent.
(I saved it from the Home Depot, rapidly responded to my care starting 4 thick roots, a new leaf and a spike.In about 2 weeks will bloom.)
