Beautiful lip on that one! Let us know if there's any fragrance to it, please, once it's fully open.

I'll check on scent this weekend. (And hopefully I'll get some nice photos of it open fully!)

Not a very strong scent, but a slight whiff of vanilla-like scent. Here are some shots of it yesterday:

Strange looking little fella. Not like any other vanda type I've seen before. But it's a real beauty. Such excitement when a new one blooms, eh? Thanks for the pic.
