Probably the last one here to join in the project and decided to purchase this (on impulse) when I saw it on ebay from Larry's Orchids.

I was a bit taken back when I opened the box. The leaves are less than pristine, lots of nicks. There's a fair amount of healthy roots but there were a fair amount of dead roots too. I gave it a 1/2 hr. soak in SuperThrive and potted in 50/50 bark (w/charcoal, perlite) and coir.

I knew the measurements before I received it but I didn't conceive of it being so tiny. This is going to be one, very long project....

Out of the box....


Repotted and ready to grow:
