Vanda Lucknow (= V. testacea x Neofinetia falcata)
Bought this from Martin Motes about 3 years ago. It wasn't particularly impressive the first two years, but the plant is mature now and putting on a better show.
Could have been more, I removed two BS keikis in February. Those plants each have two flower spikes.

That's an impressive-looking plant. In addition to the attractive flowers, all of those roots are quite pleasing to see. Are the flowers fragrant?

Not that I have noticed (so at best, very faint). I will check again though.

Very nice! That's an impressive show even without the removed keikis. Did the plant inherit the fragrance of the Neofinetia parent?
Photos like these make me which that I had the space or a greenhouse to be able to grow Vandas.

Checked it today. It has a mild fragrance in the daytime (which is difficult to describe).
