    Default Vanda leaf size?

    I see a lot of sites talking about "leaf span" in regards to a blooming sized Vanda. I read 14-18" in a lot of cases, but I never know if that means each individual leaf or the span of one leaf tip to the opposite side's leaf tip. Both of my Vandas have individual leaves of about 10-12 inches and the overall span from one side to the other is about 20 inches to 2 feet (this is with leaf curvature in mind). They both have about 6 rows of leaves with a new row starting on each. I'm just trying to get a grasp on how far away mine are from "blooming size".
