Need Advice: Mounting C. aclandiae seedling Female
Question Need Advice: Mounting C. aclandiae seedling

Hi,

I recently purchased a C. aclandiae seedling that is currently potted in a 2" clay pot with a wad of sphagnum moss. I would like to move this seedling to a mount or basket because keeping it in its current pot and media is not an option (I grow outside in S. Florida with no protection from rainfall). This seedling would receive full morning to 50% morning/afternoon sun and then shade in the late afternoon.

I would like to put it in a basket, but I am not sure if starting it off in a small net pot filled with a tiny bit of sphag would work. Would the small net pot pose any problems as the seedling grows? The other option is to mount it to tree fern, but I am reluctant to mount an aclandiae to tree fern as I have heard that these sometimes stay to wet for aclandiae. My other BS aclandiae is growing in a basket with a bit of coarse bark and lava rock and my aclandiae hybrids are growing in the same manner; they seem to be doing well.

What should I do?
