what is V.coerulea var. pink ?

Sorry for a dumb question.
Would this be a pink variation of V.coerulea specie (I know it is blue) and is found pink in wild
or is it artificially created pink hybrid with v.coerulea as a parent?
Thank you.

It seems pink can be a form or a color group of V.coerulea. It is not a hybrid...however, Vanda species x Vanda species whatever color form or group is still a Vanda species and not a hybrid.

Also be aware that Vanda coerulea is fairly unique among vandas in that it prefers to be grown on the cold side.

Thank you.
I could probably achieve lower temps by air conditioner in summer and by placing it closer to window in winter time.
What is her light requirements?

[King_of_orchid_growing:)]

Fairly high. Bright indirect light. Anywhere in the order of 2,500 - 3,500 footcandles.

Thank you for the info.
Is the coerulescens the whole new different specie or a variation of the coerulea and requires same colder temps?

V. coerulescens is a completely different species to V. coerulea.

V. coerulea is a larger plant than V. coerulescens vegetatively and florally speaking.

Each flower on a V. coerulea is roughly about 2" across.

Each flower on a V. coerulescens is roughly about 3/4" across.

Each leaf on V. coerulea is just overall larger than V. coerulescens.

There are other slightly noticeable, but smaller differences between the 2 species.

If I'm not mistaken V. coerulescens can handle cooler temperatures than V. coerulea can.

Is it:
"can tolerate cold temps"
or
"requires colder temps for healthy living"?

Also, how exactly colder should coerulea/coerulescens species be kept?
We usually keep our house about 20 -22C in winter time and about 25C in summer, is it too high for them?
My other vandas seem to be OK with it.
I guess I should have asked these questions before ordering all three of them.
Would higher temps reduce flowering, kill them?
If anyone grows these species in the house, I would appreciate any tips and suggestions.
Thanks

"Can tolerate" not "requires colder temperatures".

The temperature range outdoors in the winter here is roughly 36 F (2 C) - 75 F (24 C).

The temperature range outdoors in the summer here is roughly 60 F (16 C) - 113 F (45 C).

I know for sure that V. coerulea can tolerate the extreme heat, but I'm quite confident that V. coerulescens can as well.

The only reason why I'm not saying that I'm 100% certain that V. coerulescens can handle the extreme heat quite yet is because I've only had it since early this year and so far the summer hasn't hit the 100's F yet.

As you can see, V. coerulea has a very wide range of temperature tolerance. I suspect that V. coerulescens may have an even wider one, as I've heard that V. coerulescens can handle temperatures as low as 20 F (-7 C).

There are different forms of Vanda coerulea. the blue one, that are the most known form and there are also a pink form, Vanda coerulea f. delicata. A white form, Vanda coerulea f. luwangalba and a white form with a small amount of blue coloring, Vanda coerulea f. rogersii.
