I really hope I'm posting in the right place! I just wanted to introduce myself! I just joined and and very hopeful y'all can help save my mother's Vanda (before she returns home for it!)

Hi there and welcome to the OB! I don't know much about Vandas but there are tons of people here that do. I'm sure you will get any help you need.

Welcome! There are knowledgeable and experienced orchid growers in the forum who will be able to help you as they did to me and other newbies.

Hi and

What's happening with the vanda? If you could give us just a few details such as where the vanda is kept, what kind of lighting it gets, how it's being cared for at the moment...and what the problem is, we can probably help you

Where are you located? Vandas need lots of water and light. Water is THE most important factor for vandas as they have no place to store it...we must supply it to them. Here in Florida, that means watering the roots till they are thoroughly green every single day, sometimes more than once a day in summer.

Hi nice you found your way to the OB!

On the vanda topic cb977 is absolutely right water is most important them. Why don't you post some pics and explain what is going on.

Welcome to Orchid Board

For those who haven't seen it KLD has another thread for the Vanda problem.

WOW! You guys are great!!!! What a great resourse! Thank you so much!

My Mother will be returning from FL (to NY) with 2 new orchids for me to keep, provided her Vanda is healthy when I give it back, lol. I'll look forward to getting tips on those, too! I've always wanted to own Orchids, as I'm pretty good with plants, but been nervous as they require a different skill than most!
