Vanda keiki?

[vstrauss]

Hi guys
So here I am waiting for my Vanda to bloom again and I see this..... So I went online and did some research and it looks like I have a keiki but I have no idea. So turns out I have 2 of these growing at the base of my Vanda and I have no idea what to do with them or really what they are, meanwhile I have a new bloom spike growing so at least I know that the plant itself isn't bad
Any advice is greatly appreciated,
Thank you

Leave them where they are for the present. They will have to grow their own roots to be able to support themselves after separation. It can take months.

Thank you very much, I knew that I could count on your help

I would say that Harvey gave you good advise! It is going to be months before it is possible to remove you need at least 3 nicely grown roots before it can be removed, I personally like to keep them on and let them grow and bloom.

Concur with Jack and Harvey,. I opine, you leave them as is and would be a great specimen plant. Keiki's produced when the Vanda is very happy or very stressed due to crown rot. Just ensure that the main plant is healthy

Yes the main plant is doing great, it even has new leafs growing and I have a new bloom stem starting.

Personally, like Jack, I prefer to leave keikis in place if I can.
