Rhynchostylis are intolerant of stale conditions around the roots but neither do they like being disturbed for repotting. They are, therefore, best grown so that the numerous aerial roots hang free. Generally grown in wooden baskets without any supplemental potting medium or mounted on tree-fern or cork slabs with no padding around the roots. When grown in this manner humidity must be high and plants should be watered at least once daily in summer and plants may need several waterings a day when conditions are hot and dry.
This particular plant is mounted on a cork slab but most of the roots are out in the air and are several feet long.
