Default Ascocenda "Hot Red"

One of my favorite Ascocendas with two spikes for the first time
It usually flowers four times a year and i am a bit concerned because the orchid is not tall enough to flower so many times.
It has a wonderful scent that fills the greenhouse.

Beautiful! I love the dark red color. I wouldn't be concerned about all the blooming. I have a couple ascocendas that size that bloom four times a year.

Wonderful color!!! Sounds like a great plant, if it blooms so often.

Beautiful blooms! I've heard that it isn't unusual for some of these vandaceous hybrids to bloom multiple times per year, even small ones. It just means that you are taking good care of it!
