My Vandas/ Ascdas settling in.

[Roy]

Since I started getting back into the Vandaceous plants and showing pics of the purchases, I thought I would update by showing how they are settling into their new home.

Ron, they all look very healthy and disciplined ( no roots entering into the media of the neighbors and so on) at present : the one on the left is hookeriana, teres or hybrid? Jean

 

[Roy]

It is/was Aerides vandarum but thru postings of another vandarum elsewhere I believe it is now Papilionanthe (Aerides) subulata.

They look great, Roy. Some look to be blooming size but how long before you expect blooms from the seedlings?

I bought some vanda seedlings with some of the roots too long to put into a regular pot. I put them into mesh baskets with just a little lava rock and spag to hole them in place. So far they look OK.

Wonderful - we usually see them hanging here, at least the larger ones.

Heather, I'd like to do the hanging bit in the baskets but for me, in pots with a very coarse bark works well and you don't break the roots when transporting to meetings or shows.
