    Got this from Andy's last summer...it was a huge healthy plant with over 10 pbulbs. Within a month of owning it, the plant subsequently developed some sort of disease and rapidly declined. I managed to save two pieces - I was definitely happy to see this, in addition to two new growths starting.

    Thanks all :) I'm just worried it'll start rambling...now is the time for advice from you bulbo growers that manage to keep your plants on your mounts.

    A wonderful species! Nice save.

    My plant(from Andy's also) is a lot more compact than yours, no big gap between pbulbs and I mounted it on cork after I got it. The flowers on mine will last over a months(6 weeks? for last year's blooms)
    Mine is not a very fast grower, so it will take few years to cover the mount.
