ancistrochilus rothschildianus potting media Male
Default ancistrochilus rothschildianus potting media
Hi all!

I am looking to repot my ancistrochilus rothschildianus which I just purchased. From my reading it is a terrestrial orchid and I haven't been able to find a good consensus as to what type of media to use. I heard something on the order of peat, perlite and potting soil? Anyone have a good recommendation? Thanks!

I pot mine in sphagnum, perlite, CHC and charcoal..basically trail mix. These actually can grow epiphytically too, so whatever media you're comfortable with will probably work.
