A sea of flowers!
This year has been spectacular for Vanda falcata. Both divisions are mostly in bloom. A few buds have not opened yet, but man what a show!
The added bonus is them smelling like chocolates at night and the early mornings.

Awesome!

They are very pretty!! The only thing I don't like about orchids that smell like food I like is they make me want to eat it (not the orchid, but the food)!

I love their scent.
Mine had a first burst of fragrant bloom early July and now on a second show. smaller but smells wonderful!
How old is your plant?

Hmmm...
I'm trying to recall, and I think it is somewhere on the order of about 5 years under my care. When I got it, the plant was already a blooming sized plant with multiple growths. I divided the sucker though.
If I remember correctly, I got it at around 2008.

I got mine earlier this year. already a blooming size with multiple growths as well.
I hope it will continue to do better and better each passing year. I'm so excited about this plant!
