Ken, if you like the 3x bloom a year keep it. My mom said if you have a really long Vanda, you can force the top part to root (she recommends more than 5 leaves remaining on the base part and more than 5 leaves base on the Top) you can wrap the base with sphagnum moss in spring and it will develop roots. Once you have a lot of roots on the top part, you can cut it off and it should bloom the same time as the mother plant. The base will produce keikis or 2 but may take 2 to 3 years to bloom.
