VANDA TERETE 
VANDA MISS JOAQUIM 
Similar in color to V. teres but flowers are not as large. It is very desirable 
because it flowers throughout the year and is a flatter flower than V. teres for 
corsage use. Bears 6 to 10 flowers per spike which open in succession. The orchid 
flower made famous by Hawaii. Both Teretes are long-lasting. (See photograph, 
pages 29 and 32).

The Terete Vandas require full sunlight to flower well. They are 
grown as hedges in Florida, Gulf states and the tropics. When plants 
are grown in a northern climate place them outdoors in summer and 
mist with water daily. The semi-terete hybrids do best with some shade 
in the semi-tropics and tropics. The hybrids flower several times a 
year whereas the species have a definite season of bloom. 
The very extensive range of color surpasses every other genus of 
orchids. Their delicious fragrance is most welcome. The real virtue 
of the Vanda is the lasting quality of the flowers, some species keeping 
fresh for three months. The botanical character which establishes the 
genus is the lip being attached to the column and obtusely spurred. 
A well-grown and flowered Vanda will bring long-lasting pleasure to 
any orchid grower. They are being offered at very nominal prices.
