× Renantanda, abbreviated Rntda. in the horticultural trade,[1] is the nothogenus for intergeneric hybrids 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.
