    Cool Christensonia vietnamica

    One of my smaller vanda types. Blooms every year, no fail.

    ...and so you can compare the size of flowers. The vietnamica flowers may be smaller, but they are so cute.

    Lovely - the white lip is very striking against the yellow- green of the rest of the flower.

    No, this one has bloomed 3 or 4 times now. I usually get at least 2 spikes, this time it's 3.

    I think you will enjoy this little one. It can take more sun than some of my strap leaf vanda's. They are very hardy and rewarding to grow. I can't wait to see pic's of yours in bloom.
