The purple Phals are the 'magenta' colors, naturally, dyed a very dark royal purple, like a dark purple petunia color. I figure guys are buying them for their wives? I saw them when I first went in the door, I thought they were plastic, from a distance.
Carol, I yakk a lot on the Adenium forum here on All Things Plants. I also started a thread about some seeds I started, now it's time to start transplanting them to roomier trays.
The thread "Babies to adults" in
Adeniums forum
I'll have to take a "before" photo of the Orchid House here at the Botannical Gardens where I care for the orchid collection, it's totally stuffed with ferns and a super extra gigantic ginger. The Manager finally said to do some chopping in there. No room for anything right now.
