LOL!! Thanks Jean and Ken. I'll have to examine what it's growing in, Ken. I do have the inside container out of the one that doesn't drain. I'll try to take a photo of the label and the two containers. My experience with trying to grow an orchid is ZERO and my knowledge of them isn't all that much better. I did visit an orchid farm in Singapore once. Y'all would have liked that! Rows and rows of orchids. I think primarily for the cut flower trade. A lot were blooming, but there were a lot of plain (ugly?) plants growing than weren't blooming at the time.. They are totally transformed when they bloom. The variation from one to another is incredible, both in form and colors. I wish I had some very long shoe strings. I'd make a sling and wrap it in some coir and hang it from an oak limb. Then I could just spray it whenever along with all the other plants.

What do I do with that stem, Ken? Just leave it alone? I don't love the stake, so I'm inclined to remove the stake, but leave the stem to do whatever it wants to do.
