Size:  64.0 KB this is Vanda Memoria Lyle Swanson ( tessellatta X Kasem's Delight), a much better blooming this time around. The back of the petals are a bright violet/pink color, which would have been nice on the front, but makes for a beautiful display when the sun hits it. Nice fragrance, smells like vanilla bubblegum.

    and last and certainly least in my mind Vanda Omar pardon (Mimi Palmer X Robert's Delight), it's nice but I believe it has been mistagged by the nursery, I recently saw a photo of someone else's bloom and it is entirely different and it was what I had expected, a beautiful blue/purple spotted bloom, I know hybrids can show a lot of differentiation but mine is a far cry from the bloom I saw picturedName:  v omar 1 (Copy).jpg
