Vanda roeblingiana
Vanda roeblingiana is an easy vanda to grow.
In Taiwan, it usually blooms in late summer. The flowers are long-lasting but not fragrance.

It looks like it blooms on a small plant. Am I right to assume this?

Nice. Thanks. Beautifully unusual flowers. Any plans to pollinate them? |

I do not want to pollinate them because it usually takes several years to raise the seedlings of vandas. |

Unfortunately it got a crown rot that I did not catch in time to save the plant...  I do hope to replace it some day, but I haven't found it available yet.
