Loc; SE. Florida.
About 15 years ago, a friend gave me one stick of an orchid to grow. I mounted it to a cedar plank and hung it on a small Foxtail Palm in a pot. I placed it in a shaded spot, and the sprinklers water it regularly.

Well, it has since covered two thirds of the palm's trunk and grown thru the fence. It is unique, in that the flowers shoot out on five and six-foot stems. There are little clusters of flowers on the tips that keep coming for a month & change.








I don't know what it is, and have not seen any at the green markets down here. Can anyone give me a name, please ?

Secondly, I will need some help taking the thing apart. It has grown thru the fencing and I cannot move the tree. I plan on setting some good clusters of plants on some cedar planks and give them as presents. Knowing that I will have a flock of planks, I have built an Orchid shadehouse in an ugly corner of my yard. That will be another thread, though.

I have no clue what I am doing. My deliberate and careful neglect has served this orchid very well, I think !!
LOL

Thanks for any input,
Woodsie
