    Default Christensonia vietnamica

    Hi everyone,

    Here's some pictures of Christensonia vietnamica. The flowering stage lasts for a long time from April to August at my place. Slightly fragrant.

    Hope all of you enjoy it!

    Default Not Texas either...

    Beautiful green and white vandaceous. Can you post a close-up of one of the flowers? I'm interested in what morphological differences placed this in another genus.

    Hi vikiikid!

    Woa .... These orchids are phenomenal!!! And beautiful pictures as well. Vikiikid, you did a great job!
    I wonder if the Chisten. vietnamica x Rhync. coelestis has been registered? If it has not been registered, what are you waiting for? BTW, you might want to submit that picture for BD's photography book! What do you guys think?

    Cheers. Hoa.
