As always, begin your potting
session by sterilizing your cutting tools. Remember to re-sterilize between
plants. |
This is a Dendrobium
phalaenopsis-type hybrid we bought at a home center. Such plants are often
overpotted in a fine peat-based mix. If the plant has finished flowering and is
showing new growth, it is a good idea to get it into fresh media. |
Squeeze the plastic pot all
around to loosen the plant from the pot. It should easily lift out. If not, use a lever to gently pry the plant out of the pot.
If the Dendrobium is in a clay pot, use a knife or lever to free the roots and
remove the plant. |
