More new mounts

[Orchidementia]

Den ceraula on grapewood root:



Den Super Ise on grapewood:



Den victoriae-reginae on mopani wood:



Den primulinum (or whatever) on grapewood:



The ceraula, vic-reg and Super Ise all have flower buds as well as new canes starting since being mounted. Probably just a coincidence since it is spring, but it's much better than going limp and dying! The primulinum has new canes, too.

This is me....jealous of those lovely mounts!!

Love the tags for the orchids too!

[Stelios]

wow! they all looke healthy and also very stylish!!! Did you mounted them your self or bought them mounted? At any case they are all great looking! Thanks for sharing.

[Orchidementia]

I did all the mounting myself. They either came on plain boards or plastic baskets.

Very nice. I can't wait to see the blooms.

I also like the tags. That is one way to no lose them.

Those are gorgeous - where do you find the grapewood vine? Here the only place I can find them is the pet store - and they are expensive there.

Beautiful mounts! where did you get the wood?

[Orchidementia]

Fish and reptile suppliers. Their intended use was aquariums and terrariums!

thank you for sharing your works of art - now I have to go and raid local petshops for grapewood

[maria1971]

gorgeous mounts--where'd you get the tags?

[solay]

Thanks for the idea. I bought a bunch of grape wood from a pet store on-line and love them.

Oh my gosh...

I love, love, love your mounts... so scrumptious to the eye. You are an artist & I'm thanking you for sharing those lovely photos.

I also love your tags & I'm guessing those are pet tags

Would you mind if I swipe that idea???

I recently mounted a vanda that I have in Jamaica on a piece of driftwood... and it is hanging... twists in the wind.

Your mounts on the grapewood remind me of the twisted driftwood.

Cheers to your beautiful work

I missed this beautiful thread somehow! You did a great job with the mounts. The pet tags for labels is a classy touch. I've seen those machines at Walmarts but never thought to make anything but pet tags with 'em! How cool!
