Culture has been basically the same. It hangs outside under a small tree from early spring to late fall. The only difference I can think of is that the rainy season this year has provided twice the amount of rainfall as we usually get.

It looks healthier this year, maybe from all the rain. I do love last years' white invasion though.

I love it. Such a vivid color. Is it a Vanda or an Ascda?

Thanks for the memory jogger Marilyn. The plant is a Vanda and not an Ascocenda. I am very sorry for the stupid error.
It is obvious from the large flowers that it is not an Ascocenda.
