Hi Wendy,
Thanks for the compliment. I lined the basket with some spaghnum to hold in
the mix. Then I used a mix of med bark, sponge rock, and cocoanut dust
(coir) about 3:2:1.
I think what Peter was referring to (above) was mixing the different colors
of Den kingianum together in one basket. There are different shades of
purple, lav, white. A specimen basket of that would look great but might be
a challenge to maintain as some varieties are always stronger than others. I
might try it though. Sounds like fun.

What a beautiful specimen plant Gary, wondering what medium you used in
the
basket. Cheers Wendy

I remove those I don't want for aesthetic reasons and leave some others.
If
you go to my homepage at http://gwills.members.atlantic.net/Index.html ,
available plants, then Den kingianum you'll see my basket which I think
is
nice (even better now that I've removed more of the keikis and old
foliage).

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.
