Default Vanda Gordon Dillon

I bought this in May from Ocelaris here on OrchidBoard. I was pleasantly surprised when it spiked for me and over the moon when the second spike emerged

What a beautiful deep deep purple color. The second spike is always such a nice treat.

Those are beautiful, Laura. Do they have any scent? V. tricolor var. suavis is in its background, so I'm curious to know whether any of that species' scent carries through to this hybrid.

It does not have a scent that I have detected!
That would truly have been the icing on the cake! LOL
