from another Jersey girl! You've gotten great advice from the OB experts,of which I'm not on vandas. But bear with me...I need to vent. As you've read so far,vandas are not the easiest and need certain requirements that for some are difficult to achieve,namely high humidity,freq.waterings ,excellent light,etc. I'm just wondering if the vendor had a discussion with you first,perhaps knowing you were new to orchids and suggesting something easier to begin with for your conditions. I'm sure the plant was not inexpensive and it's lovely. For myself,the days of buying plants because of their beauty are gone. I now know what my growing conditions are and base my selections on that. Forgive the rant. I'm anxious to see this beauty and others you can share with us!
