Wow what is under all that, a basket? Or are they just growing on top of each other? I have one w about 20 growths on a branch about an inch in diameter, they seem to be ok growing ontop of eachother. congrats.

What ever supports it has long since disappeared inside the giant blob. A thick piece of bent rebar protrudes from the top to which I have hooked onto with a chain. It seems that the idea from the beginning was to get it BIG!

I cant wait to get a house so I can start sticking plants to trees. I also plan to grow big when I plan on mounting a plant.
