The present rainy, cool wet monsoon was the best time to cut, trim and repot some of the neps, taken some pics while working on them...enjoy :smile:

Re: repotting and trimming
 

I always enjoy looking at pics you posted Robert.It will take me decades to collect all those amp varieties though.Thanx for sharing!!

Re: repotting and trimming
 

Nice varieties of amp there Robert. Yes, I agreed rainy season is the best time to do the "dirty" work... Higher humidity and lower amount of sunlight will lessen the stress of repotting so the neps will acclimatise faster to the new media.

Re: repotting and trimming
 

wow!!! Gorgeous amps.. I love the harlequin.. Must find one too.. And your northiana looks like its quite vigorous.. already growing out of the pot in 3 years..

Re: repotting and trimming
 

I couldnt agree more.Nice varieties of amp.

Re: repotting and trimming
 

Wow, just love the amp basals. How did you manage to get them, bagging?

hosh

Re: repotting and trimming
 

Thanks for the comment and glad everyone enjoy the amp basals.

Hosh, there is no bagging. I allow them to grow over the edge and they naturally have the tendency to produce ground and aerial basals.

Re: repotting and trimming
 

Thanks Robert. I too allow my amp to grow over the edges and I do get basal shoots and some cups but can't get the cluster of cups like yours:(
