Ascda. Blue Tahourdin 'Bronze Grape' (Karunda X tessalata)


The color on this one is unbeliveable. It does not show up correctly on the photo, but the color is a very dark grape purple. The flowers are small but it more than makes up for it by the color and amount of blooms. I have never seen a vanda with this color before, much more vivid than the EOM picture.

15 flowers and buds, possibly more forming. If you see small spots which looks like it may have mealies, they are not mealies, but sap. I tried to absorb it with a paper towel but couldn't.

This is another example of growing Vandas in a basement with only HID lights.
