    Default Not the prettiest Vanda

    It isn't the prettiest bloom but the plant sure seems happy. I like just looking at the root structure. Vasco Mona HeiderXTessellata

    That's something I will never get to grow--until I buy my winter place in FL! I love the form of this plant--the flowers are pretty but the leaves and the roots are the real story! Love it!

    Default it could improve

    in direct sunlight the blooms will have brighter colors and the plant will be bigger hence bigger and longer spikes

    I know that the flowers are the best part, but sometimes I look at my vandas & am just happy that they're still alive
