We make our own vanda hooks, but some of the smaller supply houses like Hicks are now selling a similar product. Using a piece of straight wire, put a large hook at the top [the size to fit your hanging rod or chain] and a smaller hook at the bottom, about the size to fit around a fat vanda root. Tie the plant to the wire in 2 places and you're set.
