Ascda. Blue Tahourdin "Bronze Grape"
 
There are only 3 flowers this time, but this is one of my favorite Vandas I have. Although one of the parents is V. tessellata, this does not have a strong scnet.

It's so nice and waxy! I love the lip colour. I have a related Vanda Arjuna Wink. It hasn't bloomed yet but I understand that it will be fragrant.

Just checked by putting my nose on the flower. YES, it is fragrant.

I have one of them, too. It is a hybrid with V. Mimi Palmer and V. tessellata. It is very very fragrant. Mine bloomed for me with two spikes last year. Surprisingly, the color of the flowers was brownish-yellow with spots.

I've looked up the Arjuna wink on the internet and it does vary a bit in colour but is basically a brownish yellow. I bought mine cheap, without knowing what it would look like. I hope that the fragrance isn't too powerful. My husband can't handle strong fragrance and I must admit that they sometimes bother me too.
