extreme decorative mounting

There is no limit in what you can do with a mount and a little imagination.

The Orchids are 12 blooming size B Little Stars x Maikai, they grow as fast as weeds. Now if all 12 would just bloom at the same time -

That is stunning Jerry. Are these blooms more purple than white with the speckled
purple lip? I'm assuming it is fragrant at night?

I should have put some flower pics as well.

The color of every seed cross can vary here is the range I have been getting

Jerry,
I can't wait to see this thing once it starts spreading out! I'm just imagining what it might look like in two years, maybe even one. Can't wait to see them in bloom.

Hey Jer...
For us newbier types, an you provide a little backround? At first I thought what the heck is that ugly thing then after reading all the responses I realize it is a work of art. I have a Dryadella that looks similar, what about these? Where do they originate, do you have a photo of the bloom? and conditions. Really cool mount! T.

Great idea to mount them that way. Once established and in bloom it'll make for a great show piece.

And can you just imagine what this is going to look like in bloom! I hope you post pics when that time comes.

Beautiful Jerry! It will make a gorgeous centerpiece to bring indoors or on a patio table.

The plants are about 6-8 inches in length and were only three inch high plugs when I put them on the mount 3 months ago. This is one fast growing orchid.
