That is an awesome staghorn fern in the back of the photos. How long have you had it?
The orchids are gorgeous, too.

Hi Connie -

It's a Platycerium superbum purchased about seven years ago from Chula Orchids.

Sadly, they are no longer in business.

The plant came mounted on a board with a box built onto the back for the medium.

Occasionally, spores self-sow in my orchids and I pot them up and give them away.

Here's a shot from when it was young (you can still see the board):

beautiful staghorn, how old is it?

Lovely, well grown display. I now know how long I'll have to wait to see my Platycerium supurbums get any size. They are small plants now. I have an elephantotis that is growing madly and a madagascariensis that seems to be doing OK too (among others). Orchids and staghorns seem to compliment each other quite nicely.
