What do you want to know?

Funny you asked, my current avatar pic is of Scaph fimbriatum.

growing conditions how easy is it to grow stuff like that

I've found it to be a little more difficult to grow than most other Scaphs because they grow on the warmer side of intermediate.

They don't like to be soggy. Unless your growing area is fairly humid, it's not advisable to mount it.

They're pretty fun to grow once you get the hang of them though.

I happen to like Scaph verrucosum better as a starter Scaph. Another one may be Scaph swertifolium.

I'd maybe do a clear plastic pot with an airy, but moisture retentive mix.

thanks the place im gettin it from has them in 4 inch baskets and they say to keep it moist

I'm guessing you're getting them from Andy's.

I'd be aware of the fact that sometimes the basket comes with too much moss in comparison to the size of the root mass.

Good luck. :)
