My Ascda Princess Mikasa blue

[Elena]

I mentioned this plant on another thread recently. It was one of my very first orchids, bought a year ago almost to the day. This is its fifth blooming since I got it. 10 flowers this time, the 11th one blasted.

These are supposed to be ideal first Vandas because they are so easy. During the warmer months it grows on my living room window which is South facing and while it's colder I keep it in my little grow room which is warm, bright and humid.

The picture is a little dark but Mr E would kill me if I asked him to re-take it again

Beautiful. A faithful bloomer, mine flowers 3x a year.

Thank you guys! Everyone should have one, together with my Prosthechea cochleata this one is my most reliable bloomer. The flowers are about 9 cm accross.

Elena, that is a real beauty. Thanks for posting.

This should give encouragement to those who say "I can't grow vandas because I don't have a greenhouse".:clap:
