In our nursery we have various forms of one plant. Plants are living beings and so they are sometimes different. Variations in color and size are therefore possible.

The pictures shown with our products are sample pictures. These photos give a true picture of what the plant may look like when properly cared for. The specifications are leading for the plant received. Please read the characteristics carefully before ordering.

What are sample images?

We have an extremely large, extensive assortment with thousands of plants. In addition, because specific plants change in shape, color and size on a weekly basis, it is impossible for our small team to capture all specific plants. Each plant grows in a unique way, so it is perfectly normal that there may be differences in color, shape and size.

But because we do want to communicate clearly to you what to expect with a product, we have specifications for each plant that will give you a clear picture of what to expect.

It is therefore rare that you will receive the exact plant shown in the picture. If this is the case, it will be explicitly mentioned in the product description. Our goal is to ensure that you have a pleasant, green shopping experience and that you can shop with us worry-free.

For people who like to browse among the plants, we have a physical store. Check the contact page for opening hours and more info.

Description

This cross between the famous Vanda sanderiana and the exclusive Vanda taweesuksa combines the best of both worlds. The plant is loved for its large, lush flowers with soft pastel colors, often pink to lavender with subtle markings. Its special pedigree makes it not only pleasing to the eye, but also a valuable addition to any orchid lover looking for something unique.

Origin

Vanda sanderiana, also known as the waling-waling, is an iconic species from the Philippines known for its spectacular blooms and considered one of the most beautiful orchids in the world. The addition of Vanda taweesuksa - a rarer cultivar native to Thailand - provides improved vigor, a more compact size and often slightly more intense flower color. This hybrid was specially selected for both ornamental value and storability.

Features

This Vanda grows monopodially, with thick, leathery leaves in an elegant fan structure. Flowers appear in loose clusters and can produce up to 10 cm large. Typical are the round flower shape, wide petals and slightly speckled lip. Flowering can occur several times a year under ideal conditions.

Care

Light

Lots of bright, indirect sunlight. A spot near an east- or south-facing window with light filtered through a curtain is ideal.

Temperature

Between 20 and 30°C during the day, dropping to 16-18°C at night. Avoid cold drafts.

Substrate

This Vanda is preferably grown as a hanging plant or in an airy basket, without substrate. The roots need free air circulation.

Humidity

Minimum 60%. Daily spraying of the roots helps with stable growth. In drier indoor spaces, a humidifier is recommended.

Nutrition

Weekly orchid fertilizer at ¼ strength during the growing period. Rinse monthly with demineralized water to avoid salts. Tap water should be avoided. Clean rainwater or osmosis water is suitable for this species, with a preference for osmosis water.

Watering

Dip the roots 3-5 times a week in lukewarm, demineralized water for 15 to 20 minutes. Let them drain well before hanging the plant back. In cooler periods, the frequency can be slightly reduced. In particular, ensure high humidity against dehydration.

Flowering

With proper care, this Vanda blooms several times a year. Flowering often persists for several weeks. After flowering, old flower stems can be removed to direct energy to new growth.
