Mokara is an artificial hybrid generic name. It derives from the combination of ArachnisX Ascocentrum X Vanda.
The first Mokara Hybrid was Mokara Wai Liang ( " Arachnis Isable X Ascocenda Red Gem). It is namd after C.Y.Mok of Singapore, who registered the first such hybrid in 1969.The plant form is a combination of those in hte three parent genera. In general it seems very similar to that of Aranda.
Mokara Hybrids are now the more popular cutflowers when considering the non- dendrobium type flowers.
Cultivation and propogation are very similar to those for the arandas.
The first Mokara hybrid was called Mokara Wai Liang, named after C.Y. Mok of Singapore. This hearty hybrid has a unique flower shape and the potential to last up to two or three weeks in the vase with proper care.

Vandaceous orchids typically require more sunlight than other types of orchids to grow well and flower. Technically, they need full sunlight, but for optimization, it would be prudent to identity the amount of sunlight required for each type of plant. Simply generalizing them based on their genus (sub-species) may not be ideal. (In the first place, telling apart Mokaras, Ascocenda, Vandas, etc poses certain difficulty). As such, a simpler way to gauge would be based on the plants’ type of leaf.
We classify based on leaf construction as strap leaved vandas, terete, semi terete and full terete leaves. Accordingly their growth pattern , light requirements, fertigation needs and water requirements vary.
Most of media used for growing Vandaceous and mokara hybrids is wooden chips, pine bark, coconut husk and charcoal. The media should hold enough water as the plant grows in full sun and so requires stress due to water loss taken care of. Over watering will induce shock. The roots that grow along the axil of the plants needs to be cooled atleast once in the morning or evening.

This orchid has flowers with the largest number of colors compared to other orchids like purple, pink, blue, red, orange, yellow, and coral with each and every color has its own range. The flower consists of three sepals, which are usually different from the petals in shape but not in color.
Selecting the right Mokara for production or cultivation will be based on habit, plant charecteristics, flowering behaviour and stem lengths.

Mokaras it is easy to cultivate from top cuts that are one feet or so to get immediate flowering and have a habit similar to its parent. The plant is monopodial in habit and very important that the top leaf sheath is not disturbed.. as its apical dominance will be disturbed. Between each leaf node it produces a flower spike.
