I've been using the Better-Gro brand of potting mix recently because s/h charges for online vendors is too high for my small collection. I never tried their straight bark mix but it looks good in that photo.
I've been tempted to give Orchiata a try but I wondered if the results were due to good growing habits.

In my orchid society, everyone is raving about "Orchiata" the brand name for New Zealand pine (Pinus radiata) bark. It's supposed to last longer than fir bark and west coast growers claim their orchids grow noticeably better in it.
Cheers.
