I totally understand. It's very pretty. How many blooms does it have?

mmursuli · #47 08-23-2011, 05:32 PM

I'm sorry about that, but seven is not that bad either.

Really beautyful. You've a right to feel proud. A very nice job of growing and a great rescue. I wasn't the biggest fan of vandacous orchids until recently, when I discovered the smaller Ascocendas, Rhycostylis, ect. Now I love 'em! Got two rescues from Lowes that have started putting on some new roots and a leaf each in the past month or so, can't wait until I see a spike. With us being in FL where vandas do so well, we're a bit ahead of the game!
Cheers,
Tony

Finding the beginning of a spike is a thrill. And when you suddenly realize there are two it is a real thrill. Don't you love it when your plants reward you?
