Experimenting and learning is what it is all about!

Mine came from in the mail today. So excited and happy the plant is great and healthy. It also has two leads. I'll post pics asap. When I got it the medium was spaghnum moss. Should I repot into something else? Also, the spaghnum moss was wet when it came

It could be happy in the moss depending on your conditions.
You might consider asking the vendor when the plant was last repotted with fresh media, good to know when decided how/when to repot.

You may have told us before, but do you mind telling us again?
What light, humidity, temperatures, and watering habits you have?

All of those affect the media you use for your plant.

Great to hear that it's nice and healthy!

i have it in full sunlight part of the day. its mid sixties here in the day and mid fifties at night. but its warming up. i just got it today so i havent watered it yet, because the spagh was wet when it came. i was told they like to be watered at night and be quick drying but im not positive. i thought i should let it dry out between waterings but im not sure. please correct me if wrong!
