Ah well. Perhaps we'll get there one day. It's still going to be a Merry Vanda Christmas this year—who needs a tree, anyway?

Well, my one Vanda Sansai Blue does live in my greenhouse (but it's an add on to our house so maybe not a true greenhouse) and it has only given me 1 spike at a time. Mind you the poor thing has to have cooler temps and lower light in winter

I believe it very well could be but I have no tags. It looks very similar to photos of Pachara Delight I have seen.

I'm afraid that shipping to Canada would be a problem. They have all those silly rules at the border.

Don't you know someone who lives close to the border? then that person can get the plant in the mail and you can drive down to pick it up.
As much as I respect the rules, but the idea and the purpose behind the agricultural rules are to stop the spread of pests and diseases.
But think about how much of crops and plants are being brought in and out of countries and yet there is no way to stop the distribution of bugs and diseases.
It's just impossible.
so I'm thinking as long as you are dealing with something healthy, then a bit of bending here and there does not hurt anyone and anything at all.
These rules mainly hurts small scale hobbyists like us the most I think. lol
