I have one too Sylvain, as a cutting.. it now has four new leaves, and Once I move it to the outside under the big elm tree, it will get huge like the other philos did last summer.. I am getting a tall ruff bark climbing pole for it at the garden show this weekend.. ( I get to work there at our Go Green! booth, yay! )
I love that orchid.. My one I rescued looks like it might be trying to do something.. I have it in orchid bark and that is inside a coconut shell I have hanging in the garden.
This is an I. Merremia Tuberosa pair I started in a recycled latte cup, and back in that cola bottle is some sprouts of that bird of paradise shrub thing, and then there is the 35 yr old BigBoy , and the rescue plants I rescued from the dreaded who knows where they go at Lowes..
the seeds from those pretty vines were almost the size of a nickle, and I had to sit them in boiling hot water and peroxide to get them to do anything. sheese!.
