Vanda lamellata x brunnea x Mimi Palmer
Here she is, my favorite so far!
I purchased a couple of Vandas earlier this year and struggled with the correct placement. I have a Mimi Palmer which i was very excited about but she is not doing well.
Instead, this one took over. She was the healthiest looking plant anyway from the 5 that I currently have.
enjoy!

Is that (lamellata x brunnea) x Mimi Palmer or lamellata x (brunnea x Mimi Palmer)?
It makes a difference. If it’s the former, then it is Papilionanda (Pda.) Kyra Green.
If it is the latter, it’s V. lamelllata x Pda. Austen Liam Kean Hae Chen.

Lovely. Check out Papilionanda Paksorn Fragrance which is very similar to Mimi. My Papilio just bloomed and smells of gardenia or jasmine. I grow in the home or under trees now,nothing fancy.

I bought her as the x brunnea x Mimi Palmer. The smell is somewhat interesting, not really like you would expect a plant would smell.
Its definitely an eye catcher, but also the plant itself looks really straight green strong

lovely first blooms on the mimi palmer. She is a beauty I've always wanted to but sadly cannot grow due to her size.
Good luck strengthening her up
What about the smell on this one, is it more what you were expecting or similar to the first one?
