Default Dendrobium hancockii owners - Pot, Basket or Mount???

The flower that was on my Dendrobium hancockii when I bought it has died and I need to repot my orchid. I enjoy the beauty of this plant as much as I enjoy the flower. I am having a hard time on deciding what I want to re-pot this orchid into. I want to maintain the bamboo thicket look and would like some suggestions from those who have knowledge of growing this orchid. I am willing to put in a pot a plastic basket or on cypress board mount. I just want to be able to maintain that thicket look, which pot, basket or mount worked best for you.
Thanks

They can grow to reedlike or as you say 'bamboo thicket look'....I had mine in a netpot but with a long stick to stabilize it then put inside a heavy cachepot so it wont topple. Don't cut the dead dried flower=it will bring forth buds once again on that same spot....just let it wither and fall off.
