phals on mounts
Default phals on mounts

hello everyone of you orchid lovers

have been growing phalaenopsis hybrids and species mounted on wood for a number of years. I have got the best results on putting the orchids on trees to grow as naturally as possible. Silvery roots spreading all over the trunk of the tree and growing to amazing lengths - unimaginable in pot culture.

n.k.

Welcome aboard, n.k. Natural is always the best way to grow just about anything. It's more fun too. When you get a chance, post some pics of your phals, so we all can share in your success.
