Welcome! I'd suggest your Trichoglottis plant needs plenty of water, fertilizer, buoyant or breezy humid atmosphere, and good quality bright light (but no direct unfiltered burning sunrays during the late spring thru early autumn hours of 10 or 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 or 5:00 p.m.). I'm not so sure your plant needs to be "potted" per se, but being anchored with plastic coated or anodized aluminum wire in a slatted teak basket with no media in it would be fine. The water/fertilizer solution should be sprayed liberally on the entire plant -- leaves, aerial roots, everything top to bottom, and hopefully your growing environment is tropical enough that you will need to do this daily. This is a very tropical plant. Growing it on an average indoor windowsill or under fluorescent lights and having the bottom end of the stem inserted in a potful of media which you water is not likely to produce good results. When your plant behaves in a robust manner by growing large quickly with generous aerial roots sticking out in all directions is when you can expect to see some flowers.
