OK,besides not having a good idea of exactly where to post this. I was hoping someone well versed in cattleya growth and care could comment. I've had this NoID catt division for 4 1/2 months now. A neighbor gave up on it and it was practically rootless and fell into 2 pieces when I went to check the roots. Totally waterlogged and rotted. I at first had it terribly over potted, and have since corrected that. I've had it in bark, LECA and now lava rock. I've had it in spag 'n bag, in my lanai, and now outdoors hanging in a tree. It produced a new growth about 1 1/2 months after I started to try and save it, and quickly followed with a second growth, (both were a deep purple color, probably indicating that besides drowning it, the neighbor had it in full sun!) My problem is that now, close to 3 months later, the 2 growths have not advanced at all. The pbulbs and foilage continue to deteriorate daily, and I'm out of ideas on what to try to restart the growth. My feelilng is that whatever reserves this plant had left in foilage and pbulbs have just ran out, but I'd sure like to hear some other opinions, as it stil has green and isn't totally gone, yet.
Thanks for any help.
Tony
