    Nothing with this plant but 2 shipments of vandaceous plants arrived over the least 2 weeks. This was an eBay purchase. To my joy, the plant I originally bid on sold for a lot more than I bid BUT I got a 2nd chance offer from the seller to buy this plant which is actually BIGGER than the first plant !!!!!!!!
