Vanda Kretcant x coerulea
My wife is not an orchid maniac in the way I am. But she really wanted this blue Vanda. So I bought it in March with flowers. Admittedly the blue is striking. The plant flowered again in August, and now in December the third spike is 20 cm long, forming buds.
I am not experienced with Vanda, so I am surprised how willingly it blooms.

It's really beautiful! It is a lot like my Pachong blue, which also blooms 3 times a year.

Stunning flowers....the form is large and flat with vivid colors. You must be giving it correct culture to be blooming quarterly....other Vanda hybrids flower only twice a year....
