Vascostylis Romulo Angel
I haven't posted for awhile. I'm living part of the year in Atenas, Costa Rica. I just bought this lovely orchid on Saturday at the Alejuela Orchid Society show. I figured Costa Rica was a better place to try vandas than New England. Does anyone know it's parents?

The RHS has no orchid registered with that name (in any genus).

Today Vascostylis = Vandachostylis. I searched under both 'Angel' and 'Romulo', but found nothing that came near the name you gave.

I'm confident that what you have is Renuka Angle.

That's certainly possible. The name is written in pencil on the tag and is smudged.
There is a historical figure in Latin America named Angel Romulo I thought it might be named after. Unfortunately the grower did not speak enough English, nor I enough Spanish to ask about the parents. His vanda selection was large and very healthy looking. I only hope I can keep this plant doing well. |

Very nice!
It looks like my pink vanda except with more subtle pink tone.
