Thanks everyone!

The flowers are as gorgeous in person. Though the flowers themselves are fine, they should be on inflorescences almost twice as high as the plant itself - about 18" - 20". This...

LOL!

I had taken my husband to an orchid show and he absolutely flipped over one of the vandas he saw there, so, later, I got him one. To this day, he calls it "his orchid" ... and it is! Even...

I love this orchid - it's easy to grow and blooms at least twice a year.

Enjoy!

V Sansai Blue 'Acker's Pride' FCC/AOS

I bought this as a gift for my husband about four years ago. Even though he's an avid gardener in his own right, I get to take care of it for him.

Enjoy!
