Wanted- Vanda Mimi Palmer
Read about it recently.
Does anyone know where I can get one?
Crazy colors and strong fragrance seems to be just what I need right now.

Since you are in South Florida I would check the upcoming shows like the Tamiami one.

Thanks for the reply.
Got lucky, just bought one at Dan and Margie orchids. They are located about 12 min from my house.
Cost me $45 but it is fairly big with highly fragrant flowers on one spike and 2 keiki.
My prayer has been answered!

12 $ ! Lol, never new there was a face book page for vandas.
Looks like I paid a fortune for same size of plant here. except that mine has 2 Keikis. But, I can not afford all the shipping and phyto cost to get one from Singapore either. Love the fragrance. |

That's a reasonable price for that size plant, which I generally don't see often
