Just curious. Is it more purple or pink? I am thinking about getting a pink-ish one with some spots.

To be completely honest, I kinda liked the flowers better when the petals were bent in every direction. I thought it gave the flowers more dimension. It's a very nice plant either way.

This is very much a deep eggplant or deep aubergine, if you will

I guess it's time to send an email to Smiley.

I have so many purple-hued vandas, Naoki. I'm now looking towards orangy, peachy, pinky combo of all three colors. Any suggestions?

Cathy, among many purple-hued Vandas I have, I have one, which really stands out when it is in bloom. It is Ascda Anant Gold x Rasri Gold. If you like yellowish orange flower.

Here is the thread when it bloomed last September.

How about V. Kultana Fragrance x Ascda. Surat Spot? I got one for my friend when I ordered the plants from Smiley. It is beautiful and fragrant.
