Well..I got my Promenaea xanthina today....kind of a mixed bag to temper my excitement. The good news...large plant with a ton of roots and new growths. The bad news...came potted in a net pot PACKED in sphagnum moss...totally compacted, so in the process of removing the moss, I ended up breaking a lot of roots and one of the many developing shoots. I feel a bit meloncholy, hopefully the new shoots make enough root to replace the broken/cut ones.

Anyway..here is the final mount I made.

That is a neat mount. I see that the roots are robust. It will sustain the plant until it is established in its mount.

Yeah...the roots that didn't break in the process, though I suppose that they are probably still functional above the break at least.
