First Attempt, Let me know

So this is my first attempt at mounting an orchid. I mounted an Angraceum Leonis on a piece of cork that I bought from the pet shop for 14 dollars. So let me know how it looks and all. Please and thank you.

Being mounted, it will look prettier when in bloom than if it were potted (as mine is).

Rk makes it look so small right now. But when it gets bigger it will have room for all the roots to grab. It looks really good you did a good job

It looks very nice. Thats a pretty big piece of cork. I might have cut it into a few pieces and mounted a couple other plants, but thats just me.

I would like to cut it down and make other mounts out of it but at the moment I don't have anything to mount on it and decided to leave it whole until I decide what to do with it. Thanks for everyone liking it and all. It has a pocket there where i mounted it and put sphag there. THANKS!
