PHRAGMIPEDIUM MEMORIA GARREN WEAVER - When the top ain't pretty, check the bottom!

#PhragmipediumMemoriaGarrenWeaver #SlipperOrchids #RepotMe
As the saying goes, 'If something is not looking right on the top, check what is going on within the pot!' That is what this video is about ... and boy was it tough to get this orchid out of it's pot. Grown in full leca and Semi Hydro set up, it is the second time that I check the roots in as many years. The previous root check resulted in bumping up the orchid into the white pot you see in the video... it was pot bound before and now, oh wow! It may be a slow grower above, but its a beast below! Check it out! Thank you so much for watching! Any questions? Please leave them in the comments below, and I'll be happy to respond!
