Vanda Pakchong Blue
I self-gifted a vanda on 01 Jan 2014. It came spiked.
The flowers are now all opened and flattened.

I envy you! I had a Pachong blue for years but I lost it last year. It would bloom 3 times a year for me, sometimes 4.

Honestly, it's not really blue, more violet really. As y'all know, many cameras cannot capture the true colour tone of purple/violet hybrid vandas.
This is probably the closest I can have to V. Coerulea.

I found that although Pachong blue is not true blue, it looks blue at times because it reflects the blue of certain light. Especially if it was outdoors on a sunny day.
