Aerides houlletiana & other fragrant Vanda Orchids
Today we take a look at a first time bloomer, my recent acquisition the fragrant Aerides orchid!
▼▼▼More info below!▼▼▼
Aerides houlletiana is a vandaceous orchid species which is extremely popular in the hobby. More about it here http://www.orchidspecies.com/aerideshoulletiana.htm
The best features of this orchid are the flowers! It produces pendant, cluster like flower spikes, with yellow – purple flowers which have a wonderful citrus, lemon fragrance! It is a day time fragrant orchid and the scent is pretty powerful!
It takes the same care as any other Vanda, here is my care tutorial for Vanda orchids https://youtu.be/0azzxh8CuOM and how to water Vandas https://youtu.be/jLW4Qf7CGnc
Fragrant Vandas do exist and they can be quite common in orchid nurseries. Among my collection I have:
