Always a lovely bloomer, this tiny vanda type orchid never disappoints. I hope you enjoy it too. My good friend Gin gave it to me several years ago. I always think of her when it is blooming.

It is gorgeous Bruce!
Nice colors!
Super colour!
I really like this one.
Isn't the name Motes Burning Sands?
Ascocendas are my favorite. All of them are beautiful, and this one is no exception, Bruce. But I read that Ascocenda is no longer the official nomenclature for this type and instead, they are now called Vanda, since Ascocentrum is also now to be referred to as Vanda. I hope they bring back the term "Ascocenda" because it sets apart this lovely and colorful group from the rest of the tribe.
That's a nice flush of flowers!
Arne' right. The correct name and updated award status is now Vanda Motes Burning Sands 'Mary Motes' AM/AOS.
The only registered hybrid that is named "Burning Sands" is a phalaenopsis.
