Vanda Orchids Update – Unexpected turn of events and flowering highlights
Today we are taking a looksy at the Vanda orchids and.. it’s not looking bad at all 😀
🦋 More info below! 🦋
Since life got a bit hectic lately, I woke up with no time for my orchids. Vandas were the most exposed, since they were practically bare rooted.
I dumped some bark as medium in their baskets and switched to watering with my tap water on the terrace. And things just work so well!
