What to do with this? (Catasetum keiki) Male
Default

I've seen this in Mormodes and Cychnoches and it's almost always because there some damage/rot at the base of the bulb. Me personally, I would find a piece of wood that's been outside for a while that is still reasonable solid but already fungus-stained, cut off a piece long enough to serve as a post for tying the bulb with the growths to and repot it with the "post" buried in the pot and the p-bulb with the growths tied firmly to the "post' high enough to keep the base of the plant just slightly suspended above the media. Let the plant grow it's roots down into it and hopefully the keikis will grow their roots onto the "post" and develop enough for you to be able to separate them off later.
