General Discussion

Please help me identify this Vanda, it is one of the 3 surviving vandas from my grandfather's garden, bought from Singapore or bangkok about 30-40 years ago, first time seen it bloom, did  not have any tag, (it is not fragrant) . Thank you.

    One of my friends suggested it might be Ascda. Meda Arnold which is now called Vanda. It was made in the 1950’s & very popular. Check out photos - since it is a smaller plant it most likely is an Ascocenda.
