So plastic baskets/net pots give you the most flexibility. No big deal to gradually destroy one if you have to. To say nothing of making it a lot easier to get an overgrown one out to repot,. Another challenge with wood... being wet, it will eventually rot. But in the meantime, wood baskets are pretty hard do deconstruct if you need to. (Stanhopeas tend to grow in unpredictable directions)

Thanks again Roberta! That makes sense to me.

BTW - amazing photo of that hummingbird and orchid on your website. Looks like a Natl Geo quality photo!
