Default Roots!

It hasn't grown all that much, Tom, but it looks great. It's in a slat
basket, no medium, lives with the Vandas (pretty high light all day) and
gets watered every morning for 5 minutes. Fert when we do the Vandas. My
guess is that the light is the key, along with good watering.

No special care here. Dumb luck, maybe? But all our Vandas have been
fantastic this year, so maybe it was jealous!

Di, how'd you get your T. brachiata to spike? I've had one for about a
year,
wired into a net pot. I spray it one or more times daily, but it just sits
there and looks sickly. No critters I can see.
