Vanda christensonianum
I have had this orchid for a couple of years, first time flowering for me although the plant had flowered before. The spike started in November and I was surprised it grew over winter. Typical vanda culture for me, grown bare root in a glass vase in a south facing window, watered twice a week and the roots sprayed a few times a week as well.
The blooms are tiny no more than 7mm across but there are plenty of them.
They are semi translucent and have a crystalline appearance which is very nice when the sun shines on them.
