Hello all,

Very nice indeed... Could you show a picture of the base of the plant so as to see how you have potted it??? Is the psb in the mix or not??? What mix do you use????? Thank you in advance!!

Best regards, Thanasis

Sorry, Thanasis... i can't get a pic at the moment... its potted up like spathoglottis.. pseudobulbs half buried in the medium.. I use normal potting soil... It likes being kept moist and half shaded...
