Kumusta and mabuhay, Boyong

You got some fine collections there.

BTW how mature is your sanderiana alba? I've been looking for one for sometime and unfortunately can't find near mature or blooming sized one.

That's PV1 I think? I got one also. We have to wait for several years to see its beauty

welcome boyong! i'm newbie too and glad to see more pinoys in the forum.

anyway, i also bought a vanda sanderiana from waling store (puentespina) during the last weeks orchids show. i got a blooming size at 300 pesos. actual price should have been around 900 pesos but the seller mistaken a brown dried topmost leaf as a rot so he sells at a lower price. that brown dried leaf is now growing.
