Hi, I recently purchased a vanda which looks to have very healthy leaves and root system (they are nice and firm and a great shade of green) and the flower spike is slowly blooming flowers at its own pace.
However, the structure of the plant seems very odd as unlike all the other vandas I have, which distribute their leaves alternately left and right of their centre stalk, this plant has leaves growing in a "rotating" fashion. I am hoping that this might be related to the nursery where it came from having restricted growth space for the plant, thereby causing it to produce leaves in whichever direction benefitting it the most at that particular point in time but can't be sure either since it is such an uncommon sight (to me at least).
Does anyone know what causes the mentioned behavior or have any advice on what I can do to try to make the subsequent leaves grow in the expected "alternating left/right" way?
