First Attempt

I bought a strange looking vanda cutting for PhP50 (US$1.25) and I'd want to know the name so I looked it up. Searching the forums, I realized I bought the Vanda Miss Joachim, the national flower of Singapore. It made me really excited to cultivate the orchid, since Manila is blessed with sunshine that vandas love. Alas, before I repotted one, I saw a seed pod! It gets a bit more exciting for me to be germinating my own VMJ. Hope you geeks and experts can guide me if i can do that perhaps? Here's the pic.
