Default Vanda Pachara Delight 'Isabella'.......

This vanda has doubled in size over the last year. The flowers are bigger also at 4.5" while last year they were under 4". I've noticed on some of these vandas that the flowers seem to get larger after it's been open for a couple of weeks. Has anyone else noticed that or is it my imagination?

WOW! This has sharper color and a lot bigger than last year's blooms(I saw the blooms you were referring to from last year)
The plant itself has grown several leaves and became taller.
Its a happy healthy plant. Good growing !

Great flowers!
Few months ago I bought Vanda Pachara Delight 'Pachara' that was just starting a spike. It made 4 blooms that look very similar to yours. I am hoping it will double in size next year like yours.

Gorgeous! My V Pachara Delight had four flowers when I acquired it nine months ago. It is now in bloom with six. The flowers measure 3.5" wing to wing. I have noticed that flowers on some of my vandas do seem to stretch out after a few days but I can't say with any certainty that this one has. This beauty has gone to the top of my favorite vandas list.

Very nice plant and bloom!
No I don't think you are seeing things Tucker - I too have noticed that the flowers on my Ascocenda princess mikasa blue get bigger and darker after opening.
