| The plant you have is not mounted but rather potted in large bark. It is all too common here in Florida by several nurseries, but rather bad for the orchid.
After a year or two they will stop flowering and go into decline.
When someone forces one on me, I soak the plant and break the bark off piece by piece. It will break some roots but Dens come back fast. It is usually better to do it when you see some new roots starting but I have done it at other times. Dens can take it.
