Vanda Pakchung Blue 'Ben'
Here is another orchid from the New York Botanical Gardens. This was too blue for me to ignore. I have a soft spot for living things that are blue. Enjoy.

Thanks for commenting. I think many of their orchids are drool worthy, and this one is one of those. :drool:

/me scratches head.
In all honesty, this is no where near blue but a shade of violet. All this blue come about due to lousy cameras. You'll be surprised some expensive DSLRs can't capture the true colours of many V. coerulea hybrids. |
These colours are true to the flowers as they appear on my laptops. My wife also tells me that this is not blue but purple. I am not so good at discriminating between shades of blue and purple. In any case I know that true blue is extremely rare in flowers and these colours are always difficult to reproduce on any camera.
