Dendrobium hancockii owners - Pot, Basket or Mount???
 
The flower that was on my Dendrobium hancockii when I bought it has died and I need to repot my orchid. I enjoy the beauty of this plant as much as I enjoy the flower. I am having a hard time on deciding what I want to re-pot this orchid into. I want to maintain the bamboo thicket look and would like some suggestions from those who have knowledge of growing this orchid. I am willing to put in a pot a plastic basket or on cypress board mount. I just want to be able to maintain that thicket look, which pot, basket or mount worked best for you.
Thanks:waving

They can grow to reedlike or as you say 'bamboo thicket look'....I had mine in a netpot but with a long stick to stabilize it then put inside a heavy cachepot so it wont topple. Don't cut the dead dried flower=it will bring forth buds once again on that same spot....just let it wither and fall off.
