Sorry I've looked all over my camera and this was the only pict I found.
I got it from the local aunt who was trying get out of the orchid hobby. It was completely dehydrated and despite the big pot it was in, everything inside it was dead. To be honest I don't think I did a good job at rescuing it either. It was transitioned from wooden basket to metal basket then finally the plastic pot within the same year. The only thing I did right was giving it consistent watering, flushing, and as much light as I could (fullsun in winter.) I let It braved the cold rain and occasional cold draft sometime. When the weather become consistently cold down in the 40f, I shelter it from the night wind after it has baked in the full winter sun. As you can see I have a fairshare in abusing them too, they are quite resilient, im sure you'll succeed.
