Diane,

If you want to show the plants at some future time, keep it one to a pot and
let them grow up. For your own enjoyment, do as you like. One thing: you
didn't mention the condition of the base plant. Is it in good condition, or
is it hurting? If the parent is ailing, that could be another reason for
keikes - trying to save itself. When I win something at a meeting, it
invariably needs repotting!

Thanks, Some thought it was a mistakenly put on the raffle table, can't
wait
to see it. Would you put more than one keiki to a pot? I think I'll do 4
to
a pot- I have a lot!

I won another old orchid this month. A Den kingianum Ruth, very bushy,
out
of bloom but kiekies everywhere some on other kiekies with roots on
them.
Should those Kiekies stay on, or should I remove.

Kingianum will do this if over fertilized and under bloomed. I
would remover the kiekies that are plantable. First because the
plant will look better if it is "groomed." I also think leaving
them encourages the plant to kiekie again. They can be very
pretty plants in bloom. Good luck.
