Default "Blue" Phals.

One of the "big deals" at the recent TPIE show were blue orchids. The people displaying these were kind of tight-lipped about the history of them, but it was the general opinion that they were dyed or some other way artificially manipulated, and the next time they bloomed, the flowers would be white. To me, they just looked a little too blue. When I inquired about the price, I was told that the plants were about double the cost of regular ones.
