Vanda-in-a-Pot blooms again
A while back I wrote an article <http://www.orchidboard.com/vanda--in-pot-culture> about growing a Vanda in an apartment window, in a pot. I am more than pleased to announce that it has re-bloomed with 12 flowers on a single stalk. The plant remains healthy.

the article quoted is on the Forum and shows several prints of the base and the unique constituents in it.

Hmmmm, I read the article and saw no pictures, I also cannot find your gallery, if you do have one(your profile said you did.
Congratulations on such great growing, I just wish I could see them.
I think your article is great also. Very informative and dispels any myth about only being able to grow them outside or in warm weather.
Great Job.

How long did you have them in a pot? do you think a mix of hydroton and spanish moss would work?
if you go away for a week and not water tehm is it OK? How long does it take for teh roots to dry?
