This Aganax is a wonderful bloomer, and it puts out multiple spikes as the plant matures. The flowers are a light lilac-blue, with darker lilac-blue highlights. This is a very compact orchid, with flowers that are borne on compact stems.

The photo above is one of the orchids in bloom in our greenhouse, but its lilac-blue color is a little "washed out" in the photo. The plants are not normally in spike when delivered - however, the flower spikes are well worth waiting for. Horticultural care is similar to that of any thin-leafed orchid (cool to intermediate temperatures), with more frequent watering required than a Phalaenopsis orchid, especially when flower spikes are present.
