    Default Vanda insignis

    Another clone raised from seedling took about 31/2 year to bloom, the lip color so strong until lower petals get the reflections of pinkish.

    I love the lip on insignis. It has such an unusual depth. It always reminds me of a little bird bath.
    Zain, This one is spectacular!

    Love the lip on this vanda orchid too. Thanks for the close up photograph. 3.5 years to bloom seems so quick - good growing!!

    cheers,

    Wonderful rich color on the petals! I found your picture with the filled lip rather amusing, Zain.
