ok, so i got suckered in

[bett]

and my husband bought me a Blue Diamond Orchid, to add to my collection.
i have a very light, (skylight) and all my orchids bloom constantly.(God only knows).
so, now that i have this beauty , is there any way for future blooms to bloom bright blue, or should i just get over it, and have a white one?

i feel like i have a cubic zirconium.

White phals are so classic and elegant. There is no true blue orchid. Here's a nice shade of blue. This was my first laelia anceps cross and I love it Reminded me of fine porcelain.

Hello and welcome to the forum!

Welcome to the forum, bett. By the time everyone suggests a "blue" orchid to you, you will need to get a greenhouse! We're great enablers!

The orchid in my avatar is Ascocenda Mikasa Blue. It's a purplish-blue, more blue as the bloom ages. Just another possibility

I got one when they first started coming out in South Florida, here a thread with some info about them. It will come back as a beautiful whit phal!
