Somethings are worth waiting for.

I've posted several threads dedicated to this particular orchid. She's a Noid Vanda that I originally acquired as a cutting about 5 years ago and I've been patiently waiting for her to bless me with a bloom. Several months ago she started producing small 1/2" spikes but they remained stunted and never fully developed. She began growing the last of her 5 spikes about 2 months ago and this one matured and began blooming a few days ago. I'm such a proud Momma. The bloom is unlike any other that I've ever seen. I suspect she is a JVB or has some JVB background. Suggestions anyone?

Gorgeous! I love the variagated colors and it's not the usual vanda flower shape. Beautiful!!

Wow. I love the delicate coloration on the flower.

That's a beautiful flower! Not bad for a NOID

Very nice, I love the peachy pink color. Rewards do come with patience. Must admit 5 years is a long wait. I am not familiar with JVB??

Thanks everybody. I just can't stop gazing at her blooms and I've included a few more pics from today's photo session.

I don't blame you, I would too if I had one like that.

She is really beautiful. The shading from peach to pink is so enchanting.
