Default micro miniatures mounted on cork bark

Hello this is my new 12''x 14'' cork bark slab mounted up with micro miniatures. the following orchids as listed. Enjoy

1)psygomorchis pussillia
2) tolumnia selvestris el gato
3) dendrobium striolatum
4)neobathia filicornu
5) pluerothallis groybi
By the the way if you want to mount miniatures to cork bark. The best thing to use is staples from a hand staple gun. they rust and blend in on the cork bark. Once the orchid attaches to the cork you just got to pull out the staple. way better then using monofilment line.

Sweet! Nice choices, the ones I'm familiar with use similar culture. That will be quite a sight in a few years when these plants spread out.
Whew, these days a 12x14 slice of cork is pretty pricey!
Cheers - Nancy

Congratulations on how you took that plain piece of cork and created something with a real artistic value. There is so much more interest there than there would be if you had just used a large individual plant. Many years ago I used a branched crepe myrtle cutting and had it completely covered with Tolumnias. It was a real show when they were all in bloom.
