Vanda Kapoho (Vanda Lamellata x Vanda Tricolor)



Last Updated September 20, 2014
Hybrid originally registered in 1945.  I acquired my specimen at the GNYOS Orchid Auction August 2013. Our nicknamed "Duckie Vanda" has bloomed four times since! She also doubled in height over the past year. The picture above taken in 2014 July captures the most prolific bloom yet! Incredibly fragrant and fills the entire room with floral sweetness every morning. 






The fun with macrolens pictures below are from the September 17, 2014 bloom. 






These three petals are the same position
from each of the three flowers. It's amazing
how individual each flower is. Also reminds
me of a banana peel, zebra stripes, and
thumbprints - all at the same time.
