Vanda roeblingiana

A cooler growing vanda species. This is from the Philippines and is related to Vanda javieri. The flowers are about 2" and this spike is on a 15" tall plant that I've grown for about 9 years. It also doesn't need as much light as many vandas. Here is another clone from the same source that I've posted before.

 

Thanks, Roy. I have a cross in flask between my two clones. You never know where they will show up.

 

Happily, no. It probably bloomed for the first time the 2nd year I had it.

Yes, they are both in Section roeblingiana. There is a new species I just saw last month at a meeting. I have forgotten the name just now, but it is closer to javierii than roeblingiana. They came in a shipment as V javieri, but were not that.

 

I'm sure they are there. You need to exercise constant vigilance.

 

Can I use that in my sales pitch for flasks? On second thought, I don't think so.
