    Default VANDA RINKA 'Vanda Wiret X Vanda Tesselleta'

    A new arrival from Florida that I purchased not quite a month ago. Only the two blooms I'm afraid, but I love the colors and tessellation. Hope you all enjoy the view. ALName: 20111124_7.JPG Views: 797 Size: 195.5 KBName: 20111124_9.JPG Views: 630 Size: 185.8 KB

    Nice purchase, Al. The puple lip from V. tessellata is obviously inherited. I love it.

    What a neat flower - I thought it was a kind of zygo hybrid at first (that lip, I think) and the plant itself looks so healthy - green and strong!
