Beautiful plant and flowers, Edward. How are you growing it? Basket or pot? Any potting mix around its roots?

Hi, Steve, I use plastic pot to grow it and mix with some small bracnches.
It likes high humidity but not too wet. Basket or pot should be considered according to the enviroment.

Hi Edward,

That is great that you are having early blooms. Is it a var. remediosae?

I have a var. remediosae and a var. boxalli that bloom in December/January every year. Is that when yours' normally blooms? Just curious...

It is almost about the same.
I am not a Vanda expert , so I am not sure what the variant it is.

You are going to have quite a show. I can't wait to see the pictures of all three spikes open! It should be really gorgeous!

Edward,

I was excited to see your post, and decided to check on my V. lamellata var. boxalli this afternoon. I was thrilled to see that it has 5 spikes emerging on the main plant...I couldn't see into the basal keikis to check there. In any case, here is a photo I took of mine. I've numbered the leafs that have spikes because you can't see them all in the photo.
