Default mini phals

According to Mr. Christenson's book Phal amabilis var formosana may be
Phal. aphrodite subsp. formosana and the leaf span tops out at about 20".
There is a lot of name confusion between species in some of these groups,
your plant isn't necessarily labeled incorrectly

The numbers for amablis as they are listed in the book are correct.

These plants never read the books and have no idea how they are suppose to
look or act.

If you find a real error, let me know.


39" leaf span for amabilis?! I thought mine was mature at about 18".
Perhaps Phal amabilis var. formosana is a smaller form. . .
