Vanda hindsii

Hi everyone!!

Does anyone grow this plant? I've not found much information on the web about this one (except for the Baker's culture sheets) Can you share some information re: culture if you have it? I'd be most appreciative! Thanks!!

According to Roy, V.hindsii requires a lot of heat, hope you have it. Its also an Australian Native, it comes from the very north of Australia and its rarely cool up there.

I have one baby which I got from ebay. As soon as I heard it, I moved it to the hottest spot ( close to HID light ). It seems to be doing well.

Other member might be able to give you better advise.

Molly, thanks!!

I live in Miami so we have a lot of heat and light.

Ummmm......do you fertilize? is yours hanging or bareroot? I plan to pot mine.

thanks!

Mine is in a hanging basket with coconut husk. It gets watered every day and fertilized once a week just like other Vandas.
