| Made4engineering put it very eloquently, and what he said is exactly my reason for mounting orchids. I have to say that I grow most of my catts in pots because they seem to do well that way and would take up an excessive amount of wall space if mounted. I prefer to leave the wall for those orchids that really want and need to be mounted. There's something extremely satisfying about watching orchid roots grow and grab onto a piece of cork or branch. Whenever I mount a potted orchid, I feel like I'm releasing its roots from prison. I have a greenhouse, so it's no more work watering a wall of mounted plants than a bench of potted ones, but I understand that it's not so easy when growing plants in the house. |
