Default Vanda Denisoniana... what can I do for this li'l gem?

This beautiful Vanda is sitting in my south facing window. I mist it at least once a day "usually twice to three times, to the point where the roots turn green. A couple of the roots still have green tips, and I think most of it's needs are met! However, I wonder, is there more I could be doing? Does anyone else keep this hybrid? If so, do you have any suggestion?

I have quite a few seedling size vandas and they need a lot of watering, more so than mature plants. What you're doing sounds fine. If you can get some live spanish moss and pack loosely around the base of the plant that can help keep some moisture at the roots and maybe help you cut back on how often you have to mist it.

You could also put lava rock around its roots. That's what I do, doesn't 't decompose and let's lots of air around those roots.
