Description:
Phalaenopsis tetraspis is an epiphytic orchid native to the Andaman and Nicobar Islands and northwestern Sumatra. It is known for its showy, fragrant flowers with purple and blue spotting, which bloom on arching racemes. The plant can have up to nine elliptic-obovate leaves, each about 8 inches long. This orchid is often confused with Phalaenopsis speciosa due to its floral color variation. It has been involved in numerous hybridizations, making it a significant species in orchid cultivation.
