We report evidence for the phase coexistence of orbital orderings of different symmetry in RVO{sub 3} compounds with intermediate-size rare earths. Through a study by high-resolution x-ray powder diffraction and thermal expansion, we show that the competing orbital orderings are associated with the magnitude of the VO{sub 6} octahedral tilting and magnetic exchange striction in these compounds and that the phase-separated state is stabilized by lattice strains.
