Chamelion Vanda identification please.

Hello to you!! I am unable to identify this Vanda. The blooms start out with a purple-brown blush on the white petals then with age turn white and yellow.
Chamelion Orchid just doesn't seem fair.

It's probably an unidentifiable hybrid, but certainly has Euanthe sanderiana as a parent in its lineage, perhaps the alba form.

Orkie,
Thanks so much for the help. I have many rescued vandas in my collection. Most are identified but a few still need names. Thanks again and Happy Growing!!!

That's pretty nice Johay. It looks really happy and healthy. Like Orkie said it looks like an alba for of sanderiana.
Nice yard.
What zone are you in, or what city or state.

Swamper,
Thanks for your help. I am in Port Charlotte, FL.
Very easy to grow and bloom Vandas here. Just water the daylights out of them and feed well!

Swamper 11-01-2009 07:40 AM

Port Charlotte??? I love a place that names their streets after game fish like Snook and Tarpon. Can't wait to go back someday.

Come on over...the vandas are in full bloom!!!
I used to travel to Miami for work, but no more.
Being unemployed does give me more time for the orchids tho!! That's a good thing.

I'll take you up on that offer next time I'm in your area.
My vandas are pretty much all in bloom as well. It's a great time of year. I just wish it would get a tad colder.:waving

Did I see you write.....COLDER!?!?!???????
Ok.... leaving the cold up north was the reason for moving to Florida in the first place!!!

I know, the grass is always greener somewhere else right? I shouldn't complain, but sometimes it's so hot that you don't want to go anywhere but be inside in the AC all day. I only do outside work in the morning and late afternoon. I've been looking at all the trees that I'll be trimming as soon as it gets c..omfotable ;)
