Dendrobium loddigesii
 

Old faithful! There'sa clay bowl in there somewhere. This orchid has been on
my repot list for the last two years. I really don't want to break it up, & I
can't see how to get into it & repot successfully otherwise. Suggestions?

IMHO I'd leave it. The new pseudobulbs have a way of growing on top of
themselves. Consider it mounted.

What a specimen!!!!! Wow!!!!!! I had one of these & it had two flowers then
after that it died!!!!
I'm with Kathy, leave it be.
If it were growing out in the wilds, got too large for itself, wouldn't it
just drop pieces?
So you could put it in a slatted wooden basket & get it even bigger no?
Thanks for the show Dave.
Cheers Wendy

Why would you bother trying to repot it? It's happy as a clam and growing
into a ball. Fantastic!
