Some of my mounted orchids(mostly Aus natives)

Evenetually when we build our own house in the next 12 months or so they'll get proper hooks on the patio walls, and I'm going to make a green wall of mounted orchids too but as we are renting right now this has to do as we aren't allowed to add hooks, etc

great mounting methods....I love the mini Dendrobium and Bulbophylum specimens....they all look happy and healthy....good growing !

Some more mounts...

Sorry for a few dodgy photos, I was trying to take them without moving the plants and having a bit of trouble with the sun confusing the camera.

Dendrobium speciosum var speciosum - check out the length on that new lead on the top right!


Another one with some younger plants


Bulbophyllum lobbii 'Kathy's Gold'


Mixed D. kingianum hybrids


Liparis reflexa (looking a bit sad but just starting to settle so expecting new growth soon)


New Guinea dend seedling - not sure which one but I will know when it flowers as it is one of a few that a keep.


Sarc hybrid growing on a tree fern 'raft' - they love these!


Mystery mini catt, rescued recently and hasn't flowered, this is only a very small piece of a much larger plant - growing on lava rock


Osmoglossum pulchellum on lava rock


Sarc falcatus growing on a log mount


Another sarc hybrid, this one on a lava rock

Really nice set-up you have. The Bulbophyllum sheperdii is especially attractive. I'm envious of anyone who lives in a climate that's suitable for growing orchids like this.

I agree, as a small piece it can be a little underwhelming but once it starts to take over a mount it can be stunning. The exiguum and linguiformis mounts are both fairly new and are starting to put out new growth now so give them a year or two and they'll be looking great as well.
