I'm deeply saddened sorry to hear about the rough couple years that you and your wife have had Kim, I am sure many of us feel you on that, the 2020s have not been kind so far to many. It is especially hard when multiple challenges all crop up at once. I wish I was nearby so I could give you a hand while you and your wife recover.

Thanks guys,
I am well enough now, that I can water and do minor tasks in the greenhouse. Hopefully, in 2-3 weeks I will be able to start tackling the break-up/repotting of large plants again.
Of course, I also have to deal with our 2nd move (into a smaller house without stairs) in early August, but I will manage,

Repotme has up to 10" slotted plastic pots. (I don't work for them ).

Fair Orchids - If you didn't live so far away, I would definitely volunteer to help you in the gh in exchange for a few cuttings!
I will pray for strength to get through these trials and healing for both of you.
Many blessings from ROBB.
