If the bottom leaves are browning and falling off it is normal. If the top leaves are dying so is the plant.

Vanda need a lot of water. They need water twice a day here in Florida.

If you can not water often, try the worm tea I mentioned in a post last month. It has great potential to help retain water on Vanda roots.

Worm Tea for better orchids
