Has anyone any experience of growing orchids in this new style of plastic pot? I found them on eBay and they have holes everywhere as well as the cone at the base.
I’m thinking that with all this extra airflow, they might suit cattleyas.
Thanks,
David
No experience, but from the looks of it suitable for hanging but too narrow a base to sit on a bench (would be top heavy). Actually looks like it was designed with that purpose in mind with all the hanger holes around the rim.

I bought a few a couple of years ago. Haven't put Cattleya in them yet but have got a hybrid Paph in a smaller one without the central cone and a Dendrobium in one of the larger ones with the central cone. Both plants are doing well - I'll get some pics when I get the chance.
