If you just got this plant in yesterday, I wouldn't automatically expect it to be in spike/bloom even at the size the orchid is now, unless the seller said it would be.
Different species can bloom at different times of the year.
Just because Vanda coerulea is in spike now, doesn't mean that it is blooming season for Vanda sanderiana.
Vanda sanderiana typically blooms in fall.
I'll give you another example.
I own Vanda coerulescens and it is in spike right now.
I also own Vanda roeblingiana and it was in bloom during fall of 2013.
