Vanda Orchids
simply-thai.com - thai market - Thai Orchid Varietes - Vanda Orchids - The name Vandas will be used here to cover all vandaceous orchids including Vanda, Ascocentum, Aerides, Renanthera, Rhynchostylis, etc. and hybrids between them. Although there are some vandaceous orchids that originate in mountainous areas most are low-level plants that love warm temperatures. This group of orchids is found throughout the Eastern Hemisphere with the center of distribution being Southeast Asia. One important species, Vanda (Euanthe) sanderiana, figures prominently in many hybrids and is native to the Philippines. Vandas may be small plants with many small brightly-colored flowers or large plants with large flowers. Many Vandas can have a powerful fragrance. Rhynchostylis and Aerides are noted for their delightful citrus or musky scent. One of the most desirable qualities of Vandas is the wide range of pure, brilliant colours. Yellow, orange, scarlet, deep purple and bright fuchsia are all part of the vandaceous color palette. Some flowers sport exotic markings or can be covered with spots or stripes. Another desirable feature of many Vanda hybrids, such as Ascocenda, is their tendency to bloom several times throughout the year when they are given the proper conditions. Coupled with the long-lasting flowers it can indeed seem as if they are in continuous bloom. It is not unusual for growers in Florida and Hawaii to have Ascocendas bloom five times per year.
