Nice but I'd like to see more petal twisting. Have they twisted more since your posting?

It's a nice philli, but not sure its big enough to be a robelinii.

How long are the petals?

16 cm !

 

[Rick]

16 cm !

That's real good for a regular phili Vandacee, but for roebelinii should be at least 17-18 cm. Many get petals up to 25cm.

The plants are also pretty big with leaves about 30cm.

Maybe it will put on a growth spurt on the next growth
