Phal amboinensis

Here's my phal arrived from Oak Hills on 4/4/08. It has four leaves. Bottom leaf is very tiny and a little yellow. It is currently on my West windowsill which has a blind to control the light. I may consider growing this under lights - just haven't made up my mind yet.

Soaked in worm tea a day or two after receiving. Have not watered since as it is still cold, damp and raining here. Will probably repot in coir mix at a later date.

They take on the form of little birds, of lizards, of insects, a man, a woman, sometimes like a clown who excites our laughter. They represent the image of a lazy tortoise, a melancholy toad, an agile, ever-chattering monkey. Nature has formed orchid flowers in such a way that, unless they make us laugh, they surely excite our greatest admiration." Jacob Breynius
