Not tiny, but definitely on the smaller side. Can be bloom size in a 2" pot, plant height of 3-4".

Wow! only 3-4" high...I'm going to be getting one soon Thanks!

Also how about Neofinetia falcata x papilionanthe teres ...How high would it get? Thanks very much!

Neostylis Lou Sneary will get taller, but not a whole lot.

Not familiar with that other hybrid, sorry.

I like the basket you made. look very nice.

[Fernando]

Remember this one?

Well, now its four years later. The plant has grown 14 new big leaves, lost none, made a lot of new healthy roots and never ever flowered.

As the basket broke down eventually, it got a new basket yesterday.

It had sun, it had lots of light and no sun, it had shadow, it had heat, it had just warm, it had water on a daily basis, it had almost dry and only spraying, - I had plenty of time to change culture and try different things.

All but one: the cosy cold fridge. Yesterday the plant slept in the fridge and will do so the next four weeks. About seven hours at 10ºC.
I'll tell if something new happens!

What about fertilizer? Vandas like a lot of fertilizer.

[Fernando]

The plant gets as much fertilizer as all my other orchids.

I've heard 2 different Vanda nursery owners say they fertilize Vandas with 1-2 tablespoons / 15-30 ml of 20-20-20 fertilizer, every 5th watering.
