OMG! My mom just bought me a blue Vanda from the local grocery store for $20!

I live in Mission Viejo. i've been able to successfully grow and bloom a couple different blue vandas. I collect rain water when available and use this to dunk the vandas every morning. The summer was more humid than usual and so they've thrived. I keep them under a umbrella or on my covered front porch in the summer. I give them full sun when it's possible to not burn them.
