Hi John, me too with the potting media. I have been making some up with 50% potting mix, 20% bark, 20% sand and 10% Jumbo pearlite. We have been getting oodles of rain, so need maximum drainage. I use plastic squat pots though, and I plant the whole container in the ground, so I can move the plants for maximum health if needed.
I've got an A. orlandiana 'Ensign' and this one, which I reckon would have to be a cultivar. Have you seen this before, and do you know what it might be?
