Vanda tessellata (Roxb.) Hook. ex G. Don is a wild epiphytic orchid with high medicinal values. The seeds of this orchid can be germinated asymbiotically in vitro for rapid propagation. In this study, different growth additives such as banana powder (1-3% w/v), tomato powder (1-3% w/v), and coconut water (5, 10, 15, and 20% v/V) in half strength Murashige and Skoog medium showed various responses, either independently or in combinations. Amongst these three additives used, (15% v/V) coconut water gave the maximum percentage response (78±1.15) followed by banana powder (46.6±1.2) and tomato powder (19±1.3), when used alone. A combination of banana powder (10
