Beautiful! Can you share from which grower you got this one? The colors of the flower are really attractive.
Thank you for sharing.

I have no clue anymore from where it comes, really.
I got it as a seedling few years ago.
And to be honest, i am surprised to see such nice color too! Due to whatever reason the upper part of the flower stalk stopped growing and dried. Probably due to the extreme warm days we had here recently. I hope the next time it flowers i will have a full stalk, that will be so nice! |

At least I now know what color to look for, orange! This species might be on my wishlist in the future, it’s stunning.
Did you grow it outdoors or indoors? When I still had Vanda’s, most hybrids, I grew mine outdoors during summer. They loved that but with the heat I had to soak the roots at least once daily. I also used a pressure sprayer instead of a bucket (roots only).

This Vanda is growing in my small greenhouse.
Due to that fact, the temperatures sometimes rising too much when i was not able to open the door when sun is shining and temperatures are higher.
I have some damage, even, now and then. Its also the cause of the aborted upper part of the flower stalk, i may believe. Unfortunately

Very pretty flowers. I really like the color. And a great and vigorous species with an excellent fragrance too.
