V. Pat Delight 'Dark Blue'
If you like blues like I do, this is an Orchid to get. This is a first bloom for this Vanda which I obtained from Carmela Orchids. The huge flowers with a natural spread of 5 inches are dark blue with darker blue tessellations. There are ten flowers and two buds on the single inflorescence.

Fantastic Vanda, and it's blue, my favorite color.
I have bought a couple vandas from Carmela and they have been very nice, healthy plants.

Beautiful vanda. I like the roundness of the flowers.
In my opinion, Vandas are not blue. I still think coerulea and its hybrids are more of a lavender color.

That is stunning!
V Pat Delight (don't know of any cultivar name) is my favorite Vanda...it's gorgeous and mine also holds special meaning. The one I have is a bright pink rather than blue.
Thanks for sharing
