    Default Vanda Mimi Palmer x Vanda tessellata

    Very small, but smells great a mixture of chocolate and mint.

    Interesting looking and fragrant blooms.But I wonder why they are so small. Neither of the parent is from what I think I read, could it be testacea and not tessellata?

    Beautiful blooms! I agree that one of the parents is not correct.

    I agree with Halloamey, too small a flower to be that crossing. Quite pretty though.

    Very pretty and the scent sounds devine. I have never tried vandals due to there light requirements but you vanda growers sure keep tempting me. Lovely blooms.
