Koellensteinia graminea

Recieved the plant 4/3/08. Some of the leaves were crimped from shipping. Good size plant, with healthy leaves, and a brown dried spike. Visible, healthy roots, and a lot of them. Watered with tepid water treated with Superthrive, sprayed then soaked 30 min. Followed with cinnamon spray. Killed a small centipede that crawled out of the medium when I was watering. The plant measured about 9 inches across from leaf to leaf.



This has not been watered again, as it is a larger plant, and it is still moist in the middle. I have not decided on a medium, and after it is given some time to adjust to my conditions, and it gets over the stress of travel, will repot. I plan on repotting this within a month also.
