Thank you all! for the warm welcome and the helpful tips!
The orchid did come in its own itsy bitsy pot, and I was wondering how long it could stay in it. One of your messages said to find one that I thought was too small, and I guess that qualifies. The only thing that makes me wonder is that the plant then, is too big and it cannot stand up on its own without assistance, kinda top heavy, if you will. Is that still ok?
As for potting medium, thank you for that input!
I wish I could remember all of your id's as I thank each of you for your advice! One gal said, they are like potato chips, you can't just have one...I think she is right, already planning to offer another a home here with me...
I look forward to checking on the parents of my little one, too, ty for that info.
Well...before this turns into a book...I will close here.

Thank you all again~
