<p>This hybrid originates from Agnes Joaquim and registered by Ridley on the 1st December, 1893. This is the national flower of Singapore. To date, there are a few variations to this <em>Vanda</em>. There&#8217;s a<em> Vanda Ms Joaquim Josephine</em> and <em>Vanda Ms Joaquim Douglas</em> that were not registered but yet recognized by growers alike. This hybrid has a smooth pinkish tone, and luminously lit flowers under hot sun. It thrive very well under tropical weather, is hardy and require little maintenance. The hybrid was first wrongly recognized as a species until the crossing between <em>Vanda hookeriana x Vanda teres</em> was discovered. As a national  flower, <em>Vanda Miss Joaquim </em>represents the multi racial society of Singapore well as a hybrid.</p>
<p>Here at TG, we houses the parent plants of this national flower, the <em>Vanda hookeriana </em>and<em> Vanda teres</em> too. We also grow the variation such as the <em>Vanda Ms Joaquim Douglas</em> and many other <em>Vanda teres </em>hybrids.</p>
