Ascofinetia - 1st bloom

[Grandma M]

I have only had this little guy about 2 months so I can't take any credit for the blooms. I was told it could be either pink or blue, as blue is my favorite color, I lucked out.

That looks lovely. Do these have any fragrance?

 

[smartie2000]

good deeep colour...

 

[SlipperFan]

Deep rich color. Where did you get it, Marilyn?

 

[Grandma M]

It has only a slight fragrance.

Dot, it came from EOM. I'm very pleased with it. I like anything blue but this blue is special and so intense. I was told it could be either pink or blue but I expected if it was blue it would be a pale color. I can't wait for the other flowers to open.

I too covet 'blue' orchids, this one is quite nice.

I liked it so much that I ordered one. Hope mine is blue too.

Did I become an enabler? It's fun though isn't it?

I'm so pleassed with mine. It's my first try at these combinations. I have several vandas and they do very well, and bloom, for me under lights. This little guy is new for me so I'm not sure how it will do in the long run.

Wow. that's one of the deepest blue of those I've ever seen. Good acquisition!

I have been told that I have the name wrong. It is not an 'Ascofinetia' - It is a 'Nakamotora' (Ascocentrum X Noefinetia X Vanda). Call it what you may, I love it and contacted EOM for another one to see what that will look like. I have been told that they can be either pink, blue, or somewhere in between.
