Hey everyone, I have a really nice phal I got from Al's Orchid Exchange probably 3 years ago now. It's Phal. (Orange County Bounty 'Midas' x manii 'Irene'). It's just blooming for the first time, and has 4 spikes in the air simultaneously, with a total of 14 or so buds. Two of the buds are open already. It's quite pretty, just not my taste in flower.

I'm looking to trade something NOT enormous - paphs, phrags, or maybe - maybe - a catt or something similar (white catts and dark red catts go to the head of the class :-).

My phal is one main plant, and two basal keikis that are both quite large now. It has a total of 17 leaves, with a cute little speckling on them. It's quite healthy, I repotted it this past March (see photo of roots below) and the roots were magnificent at the time. The thing is healthy, has always been healthy, no bugs to date, and it's in a 7 inch clay pot, which I'm pretty sure I shouldn't ship it in, because it's rather heavy, but we can chat about that.

Anyway, here are some photos:

And here are the roots in March when I repotted:

Thanks.
