Greetings .........

I have five different Orlandiana color forms; this is one of my favorites - along with "Ensign". I grow all of these in pots - and they all do extremely well. I use clay orchid pots and a mix of orchid seedling medium with one third potting soil. The whole secret is to achieve quick draining, good air flow, and no "soggy feet".
