Question Den. planted to deep?

I have a question about several of my Dens. I am not sure which kind I have neither of them loose there leaves. Is it possible to plant them to deep? They are all in S/H medium.

What is that potting mix? Where did you get it if I may ask?

Cool

Hi there TommyR, the potting mix is Primeagra or Hydroton which is used for semi-hydrophonic planting. I got my first Primeagra from First Ray's Orchids and the rest is Hydroton which I got a BIGGS Wherehouse they sell everything for Hydrophonic gardening. (The medium is special clay granules for Hydroculture. The shape and international structure of the pepples ensures good root areation and prevents rotting, excess acidity and soil pests. The pepples have astable structure and outstanding capillary properties. ) This was taken from the bag of Hydroton.
Hope this answers your question
