Ascofinetia Peaches (Neofinetia falcata x Ascocentrum curvifolium) is a lovely and relatively compact hybrid that reaches approx. 4-6 inches (10-15cm) and produces offshoots readily like both its parents. The flowers of this primary hybrid vary in color, but the ones that I have seen thus far have been more on the red side, favoring Ascm. curvifolium. Some of the flowers are dark enough to be considered a bright purple.
The roots grow vigorously and are a great indicator of general plant happiness. Like other Vandas, grow in high light and warm to hot temperatures. Water well then allow to dry out which will mean daily watering unless you grow this in a pot.
If you find that the roots are drying out, add more chunky mix to the pot or basket to maintain more humidity around the roots. You can also grow the plant in a clay pot with a chunky bark mix to minimize watering.

Did you search Ascofinetia Peaches Vanda? The name is actually just Ascofinetia Peaches, sometimes Vanda Peaches. It's a hybrid between Vanda falcata [previously Neofinetia falcata] and Ascocentrum curvifolium. Asking coz i found quite some info on it online.
Anyways with Vandaceous orchids [like this], especially in Southeast Asia we grow them in baskets without media. Mist the roots every once or twice a day. Otherwise if potted it should be watered when dry. They like direct light, but should be acclimated to it slowly once it's quite large. For this an east or west window should suffice
