Vanda tessellata ( form of Sri Lanka)

[rastafouni]

This is the form of Sri Lanka of vanda tessellata as there are many forms and colors in this specie due to a large geographic repartition.

First, pict is the current bloom and the 2 others pict are from a previous bloom.

That lip is wonderful!

Thanks Naoki and Ted. Yes, the scent is wonderful !

OK, OK now you've done it. I'll just have to go buy a large plant of this now. The small one is going to take too long to flower. I'll get the yellow form as well.

im excited to see those up close. i have a neofinetia falcata crossed with that and now i can see where it gets its greyish and purple coloring from.

Philippe, those blooms are awesome. Would you please take a picture of the entire plant when you have an opportunity? Thank you.

Magnificent. No wonder I love tessellata so much.

Richard, the cross with neofinetia falcata is wonderful.
