Phal. Equestris coerulea?
 
Hello,

can someone help me to identify my equestris siedling please?
I got it as equestris coerulea and it got to be (as seller)
very light blue (alba?) with dark blue lip. Is it may be some
equestris 'Blue Lip'?...

Many thanks.

It is hard to identify what I can not see even in the best of circumstances.

Many blue varieties of equestris are, to my eyes, really purple or pink and
I have to really want to see blue in order to see it. Those that do look
blue, usually look kind of muddy.

I hesitate to use the terms "alba" or "coerulea" because they might be
confusing. There is a white-ish equestris with a *very* pale blue-ish lip
shown in an image on one website dedicated to blue Phals that would make a
very good foundation plant for a blue-lip breeding line in this species for
someone intending to produce darker blue-lipped progeny.

Search the middle of the page for a cultivar labeled:
Phalaenopsis equestris var cyanochilus 'Martel's Blue'
http://www.sapphiredragonorchids.com/SDOgallery.htm

I kind of like it...

Hi Al,

thank you for attention.

it's difficult to say something because of bad quality but anyway:

Orchis,

Though I don't speak German, I am able to determine that the "site is not
available". Thank goodness for general language study.........G

try:
http://sforzando.de/bhr/equestris_coerulea.jpg (with an _underscore_
connecting the words.)

The flower pictured on this site is much better shape than the one I linked
to. I want one. I would give up trying to label it as either an 'alba', a
"coerulea" or even a "cyanochilus" and just call it a "white with a blue lip
equestris".

Nope, this is Usenet, not a forum. You gotta get it right the first
time. :-) Or answer your own post with a corrected one.

Sorry, but you're never going to know for sure the exact hybrid. Pink (and
white) phal hybrids bred and rebred in so many combinations that it's
impossible to tell.

Thank you Ray,

for me would be enough to know if it's just plain equestris or may be
some bred like Zuma's pixie...
Unfortunately it was without ID on eBay and I liked it much...
