× Renantanda, abbreviated Rntda. in the horticultural trade,[1] is the nothogenus for intergeneric hybridx between the orchid genera Renanthera and Vanda (Ren. x V.). Its parent plants are both endangered, and have separate breeding seasons, so this hybrid is incredibly rare. Because of that, it is highly marketable, and is collected by amateur and professional florists alike.
