Stanhopea xytriophora, Gongora sp, and Coryanthes macrantha Male
Default

They get sprayed daily with an automated watering system. The problem with the Sphagnum heavy medium was that it stayed too wet and the roots started rotting.

I would show photos, but they don't look any better right now. There was a recent scale and thrips infestation and they look awful right now. Now that everything is sprayed they should rebound soon.

I just dropped off a massive Bc. Hippodamia that I was given for free to donate to the greenhouse. The 5 foot long roots are finding their way into Nepenthes ampullaria pitchers...... No medium what-so-ever, just draped over the shelf.
