Vanda tessellata f. semialba - a compact Vanda!!!  Width wise, anyway.  These are blooming size plants.
The semi-alba strain can be expected to produce flowers that have a yellow-green or chartreuse impression with a cotton-candy pink lip and a grape to lilac fragrance. 
 
I have these in plastic baskets at the moment, with no media.  If its easier for you, you could probabl drop the whole thing inside a plastic pot or clay pot to help hold humidity around the roots.  I've recently also seen folks give them a few cedar shakes to give the roots something to cling to - they seem to approve of this.  In any case, water it like a vanda - frequently. 
 
This species is reportedly tolerant of cooler conditions than some vandas, but most folks are growing it in hot climates, so I think we can assume it is flexible on such matters.

You will get one of the plants shown, or one similar in size.  Plants are blooming size but are not currently in bloom.  These are seedlings, so each will be unique.

FLAT RATE SHIPPING - one price for as many plants as you want!  (lower 48 states only) 
All plants are wrapped carefully and shipped via USPS priority mail. Plant may be shipped bare root at my discretion.  Safe arrival of buds and flowers not guaranteed.
Alaska shipments at your own risk.
We are not currently shipping to Hawaii.

    Very nice plant. Well packed. More than I usually pay but it looks like it should be worth it. Shipped as stated in the ad.
