Notice in the pictures below how the shape of the buds changes, starting from the lowermost portion up to the topmost until they are all extended and ready to open (pictures July 28 to July 31). Over the next few days the buds started to open. On 27 July 2009, I took my first snapshot using a Canon Powershot S3 1S. The spike started to come out around two weeks earlier. The flower bud had been there for more than a week. And I took snapshots of the waling-waling orchid from bud to full bloom.Д«elowВ was the first of the series of pictures I took. So, for more than two weeks sometime in July to August 2009, I was watching the orchid develop from spike to bud to full bloom to the time its last petals fall.

I attached it to a driftwood and watched it grew to full size until it had its first spike four years later. I bought the young plant (less than 4 inches tall) in 2005. So when, I took the early retirement plunge, I finally had the chance to do it! And I did not have time to do it when I was engaged in full-time corporate work. I cannot afford the hobby when I was young. Having a waling-waling in our garden and watching it grew from a small seedling to a full-grown plant is one my those things I always wanted to do.

The species bloom in the Philippines from July to October, usually after experiencing close to a month of continuous downpour brought about by the monsoon.

Waling-waling produces beautiful flowers worthy of its description as the вЂњ Queen of Philippine OrchidsвЂќ.

Before scientists propagated it in nurseries under laboratory conditions, waling-waling only grows as anВ epiphyte attached to dipterocarp forest trees. But to people from Davao, Cotabato and Zamboanga, where this orchid is, we call it waling-waling. Vanda sanderiana вЂ“ that is what the folks at the Philippine Orchid Society and a lot of hobbyists call this orchid.
