very nicely done! I dont envy you having to repot it. I got mine about a year ago from Oak Hill mounted on a piece of shingle grrrrr. Wtf were they thinking, can it get any uglier than that? The plant grows well and the roots love that shingle so I am not sure if I will ever be able to seperate the two. I might just drape some spanish moss for a little localized humidity and call it a day.
Great growing Gilda!

I did not remove it from the smaller 3in basket it was originally in..I just sat it down inside another and placed lava rock in every knook and cranny I could get it in. I will do the same thing again.(Forrest you might do this with yours)... there are friends who would love a division but... there is no way without tearing the roots up ! It summers outside in the lath house ,hanging where it's leaves turn a purpley color(hang' em high and let'em fry)...watered 2x a week then and only once a week in the winter.... fed bloom formula throught the summer....

We grow our brassavola nordosa on a chunk of wood with a little spag. It is tied on with fishing line and it seems to do really well. You might try mounting a piece of yours to see if you like it too! I like it because it doesn't take up space on the grow bench. We just hang it on the vertical panel between grow shelves on the bench and it does great. I always suspected that it was fragrant. During the day, it only has a slight fragrance. I will have to go in at night and see what it really smells like! Thanks for the amazing photo! Well done! Cheers! BD
