I've never grown a Vanda but one of the most spectacular orchids I've ever seen was a massive Vanda coerulescens - it must have been almost a meter tall, easily over 2 meters wide surrounded by smaller offshoots, and literally covered top to bottom in thin elegant blue flowers. The root system was as interesting and impressive as the shoot. I've often wanted to grow one since then, but the combination of very high light and low temperatures it requires would make it too challenging for me.

Im going to have to go Vanda Alliance here.

Aerangis are my favorites. Dont know why. They just caught me. I like Hoosier Orchids and Oak Hill as vendors for these and many others.

I only have an Ascda Princess Mikasa and a Vasco Crownfox Magic at the moment but seeing as the former is currently growing its second spike since March while sat on my living room window I'll have to pick that one

I've recently had some problems with this site so I haven't been able to get back on here and post.

I wanted to thank all of you for your opinions on Vanda's! You've been a big help!

I would have to say Vanda Sanderiana Alba. I saw one at the orchid show here in the Philippines and it was stunningly beautiful.
