Ascocenda Yarnisa Gold '24K'
The cross: Vanda Darre's Golden Heritage x Ascda Anant Gold
Ascocenda is a man-made genus that was established in 1949 by crossing Ascocentrum and Vanda. Among other attributes, the former contributed color and compactness while the latter larger flower size.
They love plenty of light, warm temperatures and lots of humidity. As with Cymbidiums, leaf color that is bright apple green is a good indicator of proper light levels. These orchids are also heavy feeders and should be fed weekly with a 1/4 strength liquid fertilizer. They are difficult to grow well without the aid of a greenhouse.
These Vandaceous orchids are among my favorites for they are relativity easy to care for and can bloom several times are year. The flowers are also long lasting which is an added bonus. They are native to Thailand, India, Myanmar and the Philippines which means they are well suited for my warm climate.
