    Did you change anything that you think made it finally bloom?

    Love the flower and the nice clean plant! I notice it's quite tall, and you have a number of aerial roots. When my Vandas present this opportunity, I like to top them and wire the top part down in the basket. The multiple growths put on quite a show when they all get to flowering; especially if the mother plant sends out keikis. Have you already considered doing this?
