Old blooms.

New blooms don't smell like stinky feet.

It's unmistakable that it smells like coconut oil.

If it's 2 or more, it's worth either potting up again or mounting.

Up to you.

But if you pot it, the pot's gotta be small and...

Usually the older pseudobulbs will last for years and will not wrinkle much at all.

The roots are not quite all that touchy either.

It's just a matter of having the new roots grow into the...

Pretty cool.

I've always liked the normal yellow and brown mottled version of Psychopsis papilio.

Oh, I see.

I won't comment on Paphs. They're not my forte.

What are you planning on getting along with the Max, Camille?

I have in the past. It would've been double or three times the current size. But some of the divisions were weak and I gave one away.

I don't plan on dividing the one I have left anytime soon.

Mine is about 6 yrs old or so maybe a bit older from the time of purchase (not the actual age of the plant itself from seed to adult), but not quite 10 yrs old. It's nothing close to being as large...

If any of you guys want to use perlite, it works fine, just sift through the small particles and use the larger ones. My mix is mostly pumice/perlite with some SuperSphag mixed in.

Although I...

Just as a heads up...

The roots on Max tenuifolia look nothing like the ones you guys are used to.

They start off with yellow tips and a beige velamen layer. As they get older, the velamen...

It's a small division from a blooming sized plant.

Trust me, that's not going to bloom anytime soon. It'll take a while.
