Christensonia vietnamica
 

The mini species bloomed again.
:waving

A new one to me, and totally charming, pheli.

Very Cute!

Really nice!

Thanks for the inputs.

For a long time, few people grow Christensonia vietnamica here in Taiwan. Nowadays, some intra-species hybrids have been made, and it then becomes pupular gradually.

Thanks for posting this Pheli. I have a couple of these plants, but mine haven't bloomed yet. Now I know what I have to looked forward to...

Here in Taiwan, the species only blooms in hot summer, usually in July and in August.
In these hot months, the plants are able to have bloom several times. It seems that hot days will facilitate blooming.

Well, it's been plenty hot in my orchid room this summer...I'll have to look closely tomorrow and see if there's anything popping up :lol:

Hi pheli (and others of course),

here mine bloomed 2 times in a row too. I don't have this specie since long time but it seems that's blooming season is from June to september in Thailand too.

I am glad you also have this species.
It is a regular bloomer and is also a sturdy one.
I got my first plant in 2000 and now I have 3 plants.
Compared with other small vanda-like species, it also does well in our cold season.
