What lovely blooms, I love the spots !
However, I don't think this is an Asc. Princess Mikasa Pink?

She is beautiful, and I also love the spots. The color is great. I bought a small pink one this May but it hasn't bloomed yet.

I love to see the roots on the vandas. They seem to have a mind of their own.

Hi Buds, that's what the grower told me it was. I'm pretty new to these babies so I was just happy to have it bloom. Next time I visit his green house I'll take and ask him to properly ID it??

Ascda. Princess Mikasa Pink has pink 'tessellations', and an even tone. I think you should ask the vendor to ID your beautiful vanda.
Keep us posted, I would like to put her on my ever growing 'wish list' !

If you bought it at a greenhouse in Surrey (Name starts with "M" ), then I think your plant might be Vanda Simirun x Thongchai.

Congratulations on blooming it! I was thrilled to bloom my Princess Mikasa 'Blue' here in the PNW without any supplemental lighting
