These are 2 additional photos of this plant. I agree it is not a fully strap leaved Vanda. It is also growing in a very weird way...it fell out of its basket years ago and remained rooted as a free hanging plant. It is rooted into a total of three baskets, totally stable, and seems happy. Please don't judge me. I never would have consciously let this happen...but I was forced to basically abandon my greenhouse and plant hobby for a stretch of about 7 years because of family matters that occupied almost all my time. I was lucky to get to go out there once a week, if at all. Sometimes months would go by and I had not been out there. I had an overhead sprinkler system, and the heating and cooling is automated. So I kinda just let it slide. But at some unknown time, one entire side of the sprinkler system failed. That's about 860 square feet of plant material that did not get watered, at all, for a very long time. I lost a lot. But I have now cleaned everything up, salvaged everything I could, repaired, revamped, and started caring for it daily. I may replace some of the plants I lost, but many, like some rare palms, rare anthuriums and philodendrons, rare gingers, and orchids, have been lost and now would be too expensive to replace. So you can see how this twisty-turny plant is growing at the moment. I know it is a hybrid, it used to have a tag with the cross, but that was stolen by the pesky squirrel a long time ago. (she did leave a hickory nut in its place though ha ha)
