Two ascocentrums are mainly used in the parentage. One Ascocentrum miniatum and ascocentru curvifolium crossed with vanda Rothschildiana as welll as vandas like Vanda Gertrude Myamoto , Vanda Manilla, Vanda Sandriana etc.

The resulting Hybrid so named ASCOCENDA.

There are many crosses of Asco cendas that are available to the avid collector. Although the ascocendas are smaller than Vanda Sandriana they contribute to the miniature section to the complex and increase the number of flowers on some ascocendas.
