Default Rhy. coelestis
Rhy. coelestis is a famous blue orchid. It is able to bloom several times in a year.
I had tried to grow this beauty but finally killed them in winter while the cold front hit.
If where I live is warm enough, I would grow some plants of this pretty species.
I took this photo while visiting an souther orchid house.
The climate here is different from where I locate and very suitable for vandas.

It is so pretty. Too bad that it isn't yours.

I though Taiwan is warm enough to grow Rhy. coelestics as it's from high elevation and can tolerate cool temperature. Well unless you live in mt. top.
