I ordered and received a seedling of the above plant - designated as near blooming size (within one year). It arrived in a 2" x 2" dark green plastic pot. The tag indicated that it was potted
in July 2014. It is in a very dense moss. Here are some photos (I hope)
Okay, for the life of me, I couldn't figure out how to post photos. I clicked "Manage Attachments" but no pop up window saying browse showed up. So you will have to trust me on this.
It has 4 deliciously plump pseudobulbs, a new growth of some sort, looks like a root growing up out of the pot. Five leaves ranging between 8" long and 5" long.
Finally the question....what do I do with it? LOL - re-pot into a hanging mesh basket - what size? I could use a vanda basket and put some wire mesh on the bottom? Media - Mixture of sphagnum moss and fine bark? Or, conversely do I mount it on a mossy pole of some sort. I know they like to stay moist all the time.
Any and all input will be happily received, cause I am stumped!
