I had this for about a 2 years and finally got it to flower. I had no clue what it is so I started research online.
Plant is about 6" tall, and the blooms are about 3/4". It looks like Ascocentrum but most of them are orangish but this is light blue/purple with darker blue lip (see pictures)... could it be Ascocentrum christiansonianum? But those don't have their lip so blue... Hmm... So I dont know... any ideas? Thank you! |

Thank you...It does look like Vanda lilacina, but doesnt have it's column (the nose) yellow but rather dark blue/purple and overall bloom look more lilac. Is that a hybrid perhaps? Or Vanda lilacina have naturally occurring variations?

After some more browsing....
Could it be Vanda coerulescens? Most of the pictures of V. coerulescens i found are more bluish than mine, but some look spot on. |
It could be Vanda coerulescens, but the shape looks wrong, and that species usually has a yellow collumn and anther cap. It could also be a hybrid.

Could it still be considered V.lilacina? |
Whatever it is it's very pretty! Congratulations !

Thank you! And thanks to Lambelkid for identifying it. I though the plant might be from Vanda alliance but i wouldn't guess it is a vanda. I am still not completely sure that is Vanda lilacina (perhaps hybrid?) but it sound close enough to put on a label. (I have a New Year resolution - no more tagless plants)
