Vanda Pachera's Delight
First flowering of this (presumably ) meristem plant. Not large - but then they wouldn't be, would they, not for a first flowering. But such a lovely colour . I know that the colour you see on your monitor screen depends on so many things, and colour is difficult to show truly anyway - serious photographers using the 'net will be aware that many shades simply canot be shoiwn on the screen anyway - what is it, 860 colours can be shown, and no morte ? Something like that. Photo buffs will appreciate that the colour needed is simply "out of gamut" at times.
Whatever.This is not a true blue, and its tnot the usual purply blue/red of the typical V.Rothschildiana ; maybe because its a much more solid colour, and that too doesn't show up too accurately - hey, if you want to see it, why no just drop by - the coffe pot is always on the hob...
Flowers about 9cm, and good texture - three out, one to come. Size can also bejudged 'cos its in a six inch pot.
