Hey all! I just bought this orchid and was wondering if you could help ID it, the pot says “Phalaenopis” it has fragrance and the leaves look spotted! Thanks in advance ☺️ any care tips are welcome!

Based on the leaves and the fact that it’s fragrant, it is most likely a schilleriana hybrid. Absolutely stunning foliage.

Awesome thank you and isn’t it amazing 😍

I’m betting on Phalaenopsis Jiaho's Pink Girl

After a quick google it definitely is the most similar looking for sure! The foliage being spotted (variegated) is random i’m assuming and not a different species?!

### Guenon commented on 2024-06-18

It’s a complex hybrid, which is created by combining either two species, a species and another hybrid, or two hybrids. Care is the same as the other Phals, except for the summer bloomers

Also, they’re amazing! Great choice!
