The place to get information about Vandas!
I while back I got some plants of Vanda richardsiana. Now they have grown for a while and can hopefully flower next year or the yaéar after.
Here is a comparison of my large falcata and the smaller richardsiana.

Vandachostylis Lou Sneary (Vanda falcata “Kokakuden” 紅赫殿 x Rhynchostylis coelestis ‘Ching Hua Blue’)
This is a fine cross with falcata and coelestis. Normally coelestis gives even more blue color to the lip of it’s children.
Maybe the Vanda falcata has a very strong color gene that makes the cross mostly white?

Finally this beauty is in full bloom. Normally this cross is Blue but this is a meristem of a Pink sibling in a Blue population. It flower 1-2 times a year and the flowers are long lasting (60 days ++).
