Finally got around to getting this into a pot - I did as suggested and trimmed the old dried growth and cleaned the old potting mix off the roots. Old growth against the side of the pot, around an inch of pot space on the new growth side for it to grow into. Potting mix was put in loosely so it needed a stake to keep it from falling over. I will go out on the weekend and look for some kelp extract or similar and give it a dose of that.
Yep, it is springtime here so hopefully it will get some new growth soon.
Thanks for all the suggestions ! And feel free to offer any advice as to what I've done wrong (is the pot too big ?? Next pot size down left no room for future growth ?). This potting / re-potting is quite enjoyable, I got all enthusiastic after doing the oncidium and tried re-potting a few others and potting a few keikis that were on some large Dendrobium kingianums.
