Vanda orchids are easy to care for provided we remember the basic needs of these beautiful and stunning beauties.
Vandas are high light orchids. Place them in locations where they will get maximum shaded light.
Water your vandas daily and sufficiently. They need high amount of water for proper growth and to bloom.
Humidity is an important factor for proper growth of vandas. For vandas to grow and to bloom, provide them a humidity of atleast 70% or more. On lesser humid days place a humidity tub or bucket so that humidity requirement for vandas is met.
Hybrid vandas need fertilizer during the summer when they grow leaves and roots.
Species vandas donot need fertilizer.
Potting or mounting depends on resources available at your disposal. Generally vandas have roots which grow long and hang in the air. Therefore it is best in practice to mount them in slated baskets or any other object of similar kinds.
Blooming time for vandas is spring season. They put out spikes in late winter which is generally end of February. The spikes take about one to two months to grow and the blooms open after that.
Many vandas are fragrant with the species ones being more fragrant. Vanda blooms last about two weeks. The blooms are very beautiful with solid as well as combination of colours.
