and Vanda Anna is still opening the last buds on that spike.
Vanda Anna also blooms in Summer outside, I seem to remember the blooms a bit flatter then. I am only guessing, the humidity is a lot lower in the greenhouse than outside in the Summer to cause the curly blooms?

And my Bletillas made it through the chilly nights, I only had to cover them once this year. A few plants right against the house wall are starting up the parade.
