    Default Vanda Sansai Blue, first flowering

    Hi there ! Here are the pictures of the first blooming of my Vanda Sansai Blue. I got in March 2009 as a small 5 leaved plant with a 15 cm leaf span. When it came to warm India it did not look back and grew vigorously. I hope the no. of flower and size increases as the plant matures. The colour and form seems nice, the blue is so nice on this one.

    Vanda's may be my favorite bloom - and that's why! Beautiful, and congrats on a successful first bloom!
