Vanda

(Ren. Kalsom × Vanda Vilairat)

Renantanda with a head of vibrant orange blooms.

Plants Available: Examples of the size available are pictured. Plants are mature, previously bloomed. Orders will be filled with plants in spike/bloom as stock permits; otherwise, mature plants which have bloomed previously.

Orchid Care: Grow in high light—bright, but indirect sun—and water generously. In the hotter months, plants should be watered daily. Reduce watering somewhat with cooler temperatures, when plants are not actively growing. Protect from temperatures below 55F. Fertilize weakly, weekly.

Lavender/coerulea form of Rhynchostylis coelestis, a vandaceaous species native to Southeast Asia. Plants are compact in growth habit. Blooms are fragrant.

Grown from seed so flower characteristics vary somewhat from plant to plant. Blooms from multiple plants are pictured to illustration variations.

Plants Available: Examples of the size available. Orders will be filled with plants in bloom as stock permits. Otherwise, mature plants that have bloomed previously.

Orchid Care: Grow in bright, filtered light (no direct sun), with good air circulation and high humidity. As with Vandas, Rhynchos can be grown bare-root, without substrate, established in wooden baskets or mounted.

Water generously and fertilize regularly while plants are in active growth (typically spring and summer). Reduce water and fertilizer somewhat during the cooler months, commensurate with the lowering of temperatures in the growing environment.

Note: These plants do not tolerate the cold. Protect them from temperatures below 50-60 F.

Vanda denisoniana is native to Southern China and southeast Asia, where it can be found growing on the trunks of trees in montane forests. Plants produce waxy, substantive flowers in shades of buttery yellow to golden yellow—and sometimes even orange! The lip of each flower, by contrast, is light yellow and uniquely fiddle-shaped.

V. denisoniana is prized for its vanilla-like fragrance, which is typically strongest in the evening and during the nighttime hours.

Grown from seed.

Plants Available: Growing in 2” pots. An example of the size available is pictured.

Orchid Care: Grow in high light—bright, indirect sun (about 50% shade). Protect from direct midday sun. Younger plants should be kept in slightly shadier conditions than mature, blooming-size plants to ensure robust root and foliar development. Plants may be grown in hanging pots or slatted baskets that allow roots to expand and hang freely. Provide strong air circulation and high humidity in the growing environment and water regularly. Plants should be watered daily when conditions are hot and plants do not receive rain. Fertilize weakly, weekly.

Plants produce large pink flowers. The blooms pictured are early examples from young plants in the crop. Expect multiple blooms per spike on mature plants.

Pda. Mevr. L. Velthuis × V. Nichanan is a quarter-terete Vanda hybrid, also referred to as a Paplionanda. The light requirements for Paplionandas are high, making them ideal candidates for landscaping in tropical and subtropical locations.

Grown from seed so flower characteristics may vary somewhat from plant to plant.

Plants Available: Growing in 2” pots, blooming-size. Examples of the size available are pictured. Plants are ready for mounting/basket culture or potting (e.g. with coarse well-draining material like charcoal and lava rock).

Orchid Care: Grow in high light and water often. This variety will perform best with bright, filtered sun for most of the day. It can tolerate full morning sun but should be provided with some shade or filtered light during the hottest midday hours. In the hotter months, plants should be watered daily. Watering can be reduced somewhat with cooler temperatures, when plant growth has slowed. Fertilize weakly, weekly.

Introducing our signature orchid—Vanda sanderiana alba. Endemic to the Philippines, this species and has a long and significant history in Vanda hybridizing. Its two-tone color form and flower shape were prized by earlier breeders, making it a key ancestor to many popular commercial Vanda hybrids.

Plants Available: Examples of the available sizes are pictured.

Orchid Care: Grow in bright, indirect light with high humidity and strong air circulation. Plants can be grown bare root (our method) or mounted.
