CULTURE OF STRAPLEAF VANDAS. The above Vandas can be grown with Cattleyas 
under the same or higher light conditions and temperatures. They are heavy feeders 
and should be fed regularly in summer every 7 to 14 days and in winter every 14 
to 21 days. Use a liquid fertilizer, Ortho-Gro fish emulsion, or give alternate feed- 
ings of these two. Do not be afraid to use large baskets or pots so aerial roots will 
have a chance to get a toehold in the container. Do not pot hard. Use plenty of 
charcoal and small amounts of osmunda. Vandas like plenty of air and syringing 
with water. We recommend hanging up Vandas. Watch for the appearance of 
bud spikes in the leaf axils and place a tiny pebble or matchstick at base of leaf 
to drain off water that might collect around buds. 
CULTURE OF TERETE VANDAS. These plants require full sunlight to flower well. 
They are grown as hedges in Florida, the Gulf states, and the tropics. In the north, 
hang near glass or outdoors in summer sun. Keep wet during growing season and 
spray with water daily. The hybrids (Joaquim and Ruby) flower several times a year 
and the species (Teres) has a definite time of bloom. Vanda flowers last a long time, 
keeping fresh for several weeks. Some keep flowering for about 3 months.
