1st bloom - Neofinetia falcata x Vanda teres
In June 2013 I went to the NJ Shore Orchid Festival. Amongst several other plants, I found a nice chunky seedling of (Vanda teres x Neofinetia falcata), offered by Ten Shin Gardens from Taiwan. The center had died, so this plant had formed 3 healthy keikis, which were almost as large as the other seedlings on the table.
While small for a V teres (see post by phili back in May), it has reached a height of about 8", which is good for a NF. I moved it into brighter light about 6 weeks ago, and it has now rewarded me by forming buds on all 3 stems.
So, I am looking forward to seeing something new in 1-2 months. Photos to follow.
