{{sigh}} Ah yes, the podangis frenzy! Such an exciting moment in time. Mine is looong gone dead and unceremoniously pitched. Y'all have the magic with those little treasures. I certainly do not.

Alas... but your success rate on little mounted plants has definitely gone up more recently. Maybe time to try again?

Ha! How kind of you to say that. I have acquired a couple of little mounted plants recently. (Thank you!) But I'm just following on the coattails of someone who grows them well. If the Neo and the Leptotes survive a year, I'll consider it. Not at all convinced I've turned a corner.
PS Tolumnia don't count.

Decided to revive this thread from Project 2020, rather than start a new one... for context. Now, three years on, an update. The little one that I bought when we started the project is growing nicely, flowers didn't last long enough to get photographed though. Here is one that I had for awhile at that time which had been potted and not doing very well. I mounted it, put it in the greenhouse, and clearly that was what it wanted. Humidity and rapid drying of roots. It's turning into a root machine!

I can't get a great shot of mine, but its doing very well. The OG fan is almost the size of my hand. There is a second quite large fan that has grown since acquisition. It flowered in early July.
