    Does anybody know what kind of Vanda is it? I've tried to searh on internet, but still confused. I don't know whether it is a V. helvola, V. scandens, or V. limbata.
    It is originated from Java. The flower is about 3 cm wide. No fragrance that I can trace. There were three buds formed, but the other two failed to bloom.

    Of the three species you suggest, it looks to me to be Vanda helvola. Do you have a close up photo of the flower that you can post?

    Cheers.

    Thanks Gary.
    Yes, I do think so. That is a V. helvola. Limbata and scandens have spots, while mine has no spots. Unfortunately I don't have a close up photo. I am away from home currently. I'll make a picture next time.
