Default White Phalaenopsis

Bought this some months ago for UK £1.50 as it had finished flowering,
didn't even know what colour it was. Repotting into live sphagnum moss and a
bit of care has resulted in 27 flowers. It lives with 6 others on various
windowsills.

Usually called a Moth Orchid and is probably the most common Orchid on sale.

Very good growing to you & neat photos.
