"Orchiata is a wonderful alternative to the fir bark we have used for the past 30 years in growing Odontoglossum and Miltonias. The plants have responded well to Orchiata and grown side by side, the plants in Orchiata are significantly stronger and greener. We are no longer using fir bark as a growing substrate and strongly recommend Orchiata."

"Orchiata bark is one of the most significant growing improvements that I’ve made with orchids in the last 10 years! We all want a potting mix that will produce great roots, yet last as long as possible. Nothing I’ve tried accomplishes these goals better or longer than Orchiata."
~ Hadley Cash, Marriott Orchids, North Carolina
“About 18 months ago, I became extremely dissatisfied with the growth of various Odontoglossum Alliance species and hybrids in my collection. Despite my using the premium US bark, many plants failed to thrive and no plant seemed to be growing or blooming up to what I considered its potential. In the Spring of 2009, I repotted my entire collection into Orchiata bark, amended with about 15% sponge rock. Now my plants seem transformed. The roots are healthy, the foliage is a bright green and the pseudobulbs are plump and shiny. I have not changed any other cultural parameters and must say that I am extremely pleased with the performance of the Orchiata bark product.”
