Any suggestions for this Vanda Miss Joaquim? She’s not looking right. She gets at least 6hrs direct sunlight, and I dip her water every other day

It looks like it’s super dehydrated. From what I know of vandas, they want full sun all day long and to be watered daily. In warmer weather they may need to be watered multiple times a day.

Good luck!
