What am I going to do with this monster? Male
Default What am I going to do with this monster?

I've had this guy for about 4 years now. It was about 9 inches long when I received it mail order from everyone's favorite Bill @ Royal Orchid Club . lol

It's a mari clone, (thats when you cut it from a mature plant? right?) and it did not do too well for 2 years that I had it. Stayed kinda dry and withered in the leaves and all the sudden it shot off! It grew a foot and a half. Last year was it's first time blooming (for me anyways) and it bloomed also this year. Now it has grown even more topping out at around 3.25 feet. Makes around 11 fragrant light purple flowers that are the "teselatta" crinkled style flowers.

I don't know what to do at this point. Should I make longer hanging wires? Do I try to re-pot it? What do I need to do for a maturing plant?

It's my baby!!!
