    The lovely colours of the Christensoniana coming through well here - in fact there is just a bit of the shape of the Ascocenda and a lot of increased size from it, in this cross ; other vietnamica hybrids I have flowered have merely had the other parent colour modified a bit - e.g. as in Penang Sunset.
    A first flowering for me ; I look forward to seeing it on a more mature plant when the flower count should improve a lot.
