Repotting a very old Phaius tankervilleae | 7 hrs in 30 minutes | Terrestrial orchid repot 🤩

#phaius #terrestrialorchids #phaiustankervilleae
The Orchid Hobby... not for the faint hearted! If you need a workout, then I can highly recommend repotting a Phaius tankervilleae that has been in a pot for 4 years, and make sure that the pot is huge to get the maximum out of your 7 hr work out! Repotting Phaius tankervilleae was a much anticipated project that needed to be done in 2022, but it took me a while to figure out the logistics so that I could pull this off without damaging the seedpods that the orchid is maturing.
