Bought this plant in flower back in March at a show, and it's bloomed for me again up here in the dead of Canadian Winter!

When a vanda blooms like that in Canada, just enjoy the blooms, fragrance takes a back seat.

Niki I think that we all should bow to you. You grow these chids in a place where I wouldn't venture to. Indoors and they bloom for you beautifully !!!! Congratulations !!!! What's your watering/fertilizing regime ???

Everyone is always disappointed when I tell them that all I do is hang them in a west facing window in the kitchen, and soak them a couple times a week in fertilizer water for a half hour. That's it
