you can plant the C. aclandiae in anything that doesnt stay wet too long. In my own world, wet overnight is too long. I plant mine in granite chips so I get to water them everyday. I like to water them and now being buried in granite chips they look forward to a drink everyday

not what ya plant em in its how you water what ya planted em in

RJ, being wet overnight for multiple nights is not uncommon here in the summer. Watering is not a big deal to me either.

Thanks for all the advice! I repotted the seedling with hydroton and a tiny bit of sphag resting on top and then I tied it to the center of the octagonal basket that was lined with coconut fiber strands and hydroton around the small 2" clay pot inside.
