That vanda is a dream! Blooming in the Winter for the holidays is always a bonus, in my book.

Thank you all for your kind comments.

Lc. Joann Amos is making lots of progress with 2 new blooms opening today.

My daughter gave me this one for my birthday last January and I'm so grateful that I didn't kill it and that it bloomed again. There are 5 more buds that should be opening in a week or so.

Very nice group of plants. Onc. Twinkle needs an award for the most prolific bloomer. I have Onc. ornithorhyncum that also sets spikes months before it blooms.

This may be a repeat of a previous post but your Vanda looks like Vanda TMA or Vanda JVB (Josephine Van Brero).

Thanks, Jerry. I believe you did mention the TMA/JVB possibility on a previous post and I completely agree with you. Her blooms are very distinct and I strongly suspect she's a hybrid of JVB/TMA.

Hey David,

Thanks for asking. I'm really anxious about this one too. In photographs she looks about the same, but her buds are swelling more and more each day and it shouldn't be long before she blooms. I'll be sure to post pics as more things happen.

Nice group of blooms Junebug. I really like the noid vanda. I think I've seen that flower somewhere but can't place it. Sure would be nice to put a name on it.
