Vanda roeblingiana

[walingwaling]

Hi,

i got a cutting of it not so long ago and i can only assume that it panicked and send out some spikes, as i don't think it will ever flower again in the lowlands. Nevertheless, i finally saw the flowers of this wonderful species.

Cheers!

Very impressive, intricate blooms. Rather Epidendrum looking lip, but the rest of the bloom are pure Vanda in form and color. I don't believe I've ever seen these before Ron.......................AL

Ron, my plant in September 2012. Interesting, on your plant the lip is almost yellow.

if anyone knows where to get one of these in the usa - please private message me. been looking for a while, and the last place is sold out. very hard to find. wish i could find a nice compot or blooming sizes. there are a lot of color variations, but not much written about these that i can find. they can take some winter cold compared to a normal vanda. if anyone wants to list an offset for sale here on orchid bids let me know!!!

Lovely bloom Ron, maybe we should all cause our orchids to panic too LOL I am looking to see if I can find it over here too, thanks for sharing

Very nice shots, Ron. Quite different from the "usual" vanda look -- a very appealing change of pace.
