Vanda Motes Hot Mama

[PeteM]

(1943 V. Foxy Lady x V. merrilli var, rotori)

First bloom seedling from Motes Orchids, November 2021. Unfortunately, I did something to cause the last 3 buds to blast. :/ I think I let it dry out too much or maybe it didn’t like the fert change. It’s a tricky time of the year with the cooling night temps. But I’m happy with the flower. I really like the yellow on the backs of the flowers.

Impressive flower.

It is still a young plant so maybe the last buds blasted because of that. Otherwise lower night temperatures can do it. It happens to my V Stephen Scott Young every year in early spring.
