"Extended Moisture" Mounted Tolumnia

[Ray]

Tolumnia Jairak Flyer $20 Delivered



This is my “guinea pig” plant for “Extended Moisture Mounting” – it is mounted on a cedar plank to which LECA pellets are glued. It is rooted and the blossoms are on the way out at this point. The plank is approximately 12″ tall x 7″ wide, and will accommodate the plant for many years to come.

It has done really well outdoors in the heat, humidity and sunshine, but I don’t have a good way to care for it over the winter.

Good idea!

Shame I just got my stuff. I’d have grabbed this for sure.

That took to the mount well! Pretty good proof of concept

Isn't there more surface area on the leca?

[Ray]

More surface area and more volume to absorb water.

I'm growing Tolumnias in the clay pellets in small clay pots in my greenhouse. They get watered every 2-3 days and seem to be very happy.
