The timely process was worthy when you see the ending results. Very nice, many of us are a tidbit jealous, when do you plan on taking orders

Now, that's a nice piece of work. You did a great job and the end result is a one-of-a-kind display worthy of envy from all DIY selfers!
Congratulations!

What is the mounted plant in the center?
Al

Thank you all for the compliments.

Sparkie- This display will only accommodate three orchids. Maybe the next one will supply more space.

Cheryl- It weighs alot(shipping). I would be willing to build one for somebody who wants it bad enough. It takes 2 people to install. (more like 140 lbs.)

Al- The mounted "chid" is my latest purchase. sedieria japonica. It has now been mounted to a peice of cork bark.

There are still alot of bugs that need to be worked out but they will be worked out eventually.
