I just received this vandachostylis from a seller/grower in Thailand that I had never ordered from before. I was pretty surprized when I opened the box to see a very large-flowered plant inside. The plant I received is not as 'red' as the picture that I had seen (more orangy). But I am very happy.
Thank you Cheri for the nice words. And to my surprise again, this morning the blooms have that red radience that I was hoping for.
This might be a stupid question, but are you able to grow vandas in MI? I lived in East Tawas/Oscoda for 10 years in the 1980's, but I was not an orchid possessor. LOL
