    All I can say is WOW after reading the story of the cross. In all honesty, the bloom is past its prime. I knew it and the other cross were nice, just not like this.
    I will have to tell you the story of how this plant got knocked over in a storm. It caused the top to snap off. It didn't have any roots. I tried and failed in laying it on sphagnum. I lost the entire top. It took a while and I finally got an two offshoot. They both are good sized about 5 years old. One of the offshoots has never spiked.
    I'm excited to read your post Yew. I appreciate you telling me about the plant. Thanks very much.

    It's a beauty, Cathy. I always like tessellated vandas, and anything in the red group. This one has both.

    It does have the heavy fragrance of tessellata, Zain.
