Should have plenty of room, the spikes on these aren't all that tall. Only one way to find out, bloom that puppy!

This hybrid has rather short spikes due to the bellatulum parent, so you don't need to worry about that!

Vanda M Pearman is a very easy plant to grow....I had one for many years....dead now, but it lived with me for at least a decade. Very easy to grow in standard paph hybrid conditions...while easy to grow, its not a reliable bloomer...it did bloom for me, several times, but not yearly....in fact skipped many years...still, it is definitely a hybrid I would recommend if it is available at a reasonable price. Take care, Eric

Those leaves do look really great! I had forgotten how beautiful they were and had not grown them for a while.

Here are some updates on the plant, and its spike. Im impressed at how fast it has grown. Though Im a little confused, all the pics I have seen only have one flower. But this spike looks like it has two buds. Am I not identifying the parts correctly?








Ok, so is it one or two buds?????

Thanks all.

from what I understand, the unifloral paphs will occasionally have two buds if cultural conditions are ideal. however, the second one may not develop into a flower. if you have two buds both flowering, then you are truly lucky!
