For whatever reason my cattleyas seem to love semi-hydro too.

I would love to see vandas growing in semi hydro...

Everything I own is growing in S/H! That includes Neofinetia, which has been reclassified as Vanda! But seriously, I've been using cut-up microfiber towels on my vandaceous orchids to some success. It acts like an inorganic sphagnum moss. Potting a mature Vanda into S/H is such a pain, and in my experience they never like it. I'd probably have more success starting with a Vanda seedling in S/H.
