Vandachostylis Lou Sneary, a hybrid of Vandachostylis falcata and Rhynchostylis coelestis, exemplifies the beauty of cross-breeding within the orchid family. This remarkable cultivar showcases unique floral characteristics, combining the vibrant hues and intricate patterns of its parent species. Cultivators and enthusiasts alike appreciate its resilience and adaptability, making it a sought-after addition to any collection. The Vandachostylis Lou Sneary not only contributes to the diversity of orchid hybrids but also serves as a testament to the artistry of horticultural innovation. Previously known as Neostyllis Lou Sneary, if you don’t have room for large Vanda’s this one is for you because it stays small and produces many spikes from a small plant! Has produced at least 15 CCM awards through the years, so one of the best small plants for growing into a specimen.
Typically bluish-lavender, sometimes pinkish or violet, with a darker lip. White forms exist depending on clone. Most have a sweet fragrance during the afternoon and evening, something lacking in most Vandas.
These plants should bloom in their next blooming season.
