Most of the terrestrial orchids are tufted types, but the size of pseudobulbs varies greatly. The old pseudobulb is usually leafless, and there are several rings (nodes) upward from the base. If you look carefully, you can see a bud eye at the base, and another bud eye on the opposite position of the second ring, as well as on the opposite side of the previous ring. But the more upward, the smaller the bud eye. As the false bulbs are squeezed together, it is difficult to cut in the basin, so they must be taken out. The way to take out the plant is to press and hold the basin soil at the base of the plant with one hand, turn the basin upside down with the other hand, shake it gently, separate the matrix from the basin wall, remove it, and then wash it clean. be careful not to hurt the buds. Then look for a large gap under the knife to cut, ramet and then planted in a small pot. For leafless old false bulbs, you can wrap them in moist water moss and place them in a slightly warmer place. after a few weeks, you can see the bud eyes grow, and then transplant them in a small pot.
