Default Today's mounting project
Today, I divided my L. purpurata var carnea for a re-pot, and instead, decided to cut an old cypress tree trunk I had, in half. The center was rotted out, so cutting it in half created a basket, of sorts. Throw in a few lifting eyes, some moss, and some chain, and you've got a multi-plant mount with a nice, "swampy" look. So I not only mounted L. purpurata var carnea, but I also threw my new Epi. pseudepidendrum on there with it, and still had a nice spot left for my Brazilian fern.
