Let me join in here. Watch the roots with the green tips - they are the actively growing roots and you DON'T want to damage the green ends. The rest of the white roots are functioning roots, but not getting any longer and may be a bit brittle until you soak the whole mass in water. So step one - soak in water to get all the roots wet and limber. Step two, remove the moss as best you can - don't be forcefull. Step three remount the plant and you're good to go. Hope this helps.

I don't do most Dendros or large, "floofy orchids". For me it's minis (like Angraecoides), Masdies, Paphs, and others that crept in somewhere along the line. See my orchid list for complete collection (usually not current.)
