WHAT'S IN BLOOM Featuring Orchids in Bloom at Bonnet House
This month we have -Vanda
The Vanda Alliance is made up mostly of warm-and full-sun-growing orchids with colorful flowers. Originating in tropical Asia, they are easily grown in warm climates, where plants are cultivated outside in light shade, such as in a lath house. In climates where winters are cold, they are often summered outside, and grown inside during the winter in a sunny window, or year round in a greeenhouse. Smaller growing ascocendas are best outside tropical conditions. This particular Vanda is a Cindy Banks and is from the original Bonnet House collection.
