    This is 3 seedlings that have grown together over the years. There is very little media left in the net pots they started in and the plants are mostly growing free out in the air. Bright light and dry for several days between watering.

    Great blooming and wonderful mount/clump, and look at those roots. Those are happy plants.

    Great!
    Am I right, that three pots are hidden below the root mass?

    There are flimsey 3" net pots in there. When I pulled them apart after photographing them, there seemed to be little relationship between the plants and the net pots. The plants had grown out of them quite a few years ago.
