Vanda coerula
ORCHIDACEAE, The Orchid family

My sweet client brought these two stems of Vanda orchids to me at the studio show. In my (very) cool house they are lasting well.

They have a subtle, checkered, reptilian pattern. They are native to Southeast Asia, but are widely grown comercially in greenhouses as a cut flower.
