    Default Vanda lamellata

    My friend told me this plant came from Mindoro. It looks like a boxallii variety with yellow petals (the yellow do not show much in the photo though)

    This is one of my favorites, especially since it does not look like a boxalli or even a remediosae variety.

    I think it's var. boxali. The lip of Vanda lamellata var. ramediosae is not pink, just labellum is pink. Look at the pictures below, "Similar Threads", expecially for ntgerald Picture.

    Thanks Mietek! It does look like boxalli. I really like this since it's still a bit unique from the other boxalli's I have. Plus it has a strong pleasant fragrance. I'm attaching some more photos taking from its previous bloomings a few months/years back

    This shows a night time photo which shows the yellow color more and an almost spent bloom which makes it look like the typical lamellata
