Default Vanda Fusarium

I think my Vanda tessellata has fusarium... I received it about 3 weeks ago, and since then it has been dropping green leaves from the bottom up, and one of its roots is starting to shrivel. I really do not want to lose this one.

My plan right now is to cut it until I don't see a purple ring, but I am afraid I might end up with a rootless stem. Does anyone have experience with treating this disease?

I don't have experience treating fusarium (my experience with the disease has been mostly trashing infected plants). Hopefully some other members can offer some advice - but in the meanwhile I found this

and fusarium related topics on OB

Good luck!

What you describe can also be caused by inadequate watering. Why do you think you have fusarium?

The combination of browning root and dropping green leaves. I read those are the symptoms of fusarium.

I cut a small piece of the root that is browning, and i did not see a purple ring. Hopefully that is a good sign...

I think the purple ring is in the stem, not in the roots. I would really like to see a Vanda with confirmed fusarium side-by-side with one with drought damage.
