I bought this piece of cork bark and it is completely hollow inside. I Packed some sphagnum and bark mix in each end and mounted to different Tolumnia's and C. Why not is tied with some sphagnum.

Looks great! I love pieces like that. If you ever planning on entering any of them for judging anywhere, it would create a problem though

Looks like you had a wonderful day today!

Are you able to keep it inside? Or is it going outside?

Thanks, but I have not even considered showing any of my plants. But you do have my curiosity, why would it be a problem? I no nothing about judging

I going to hang it on the outside wall, I think they will be happier there.

I too would like to know why the mount wouldn't be show-able with the multiple orchids.

I am thinking of trying epi-web for the first time. I really like the looks of your cork mount. Decision's decision's. Is there any penetrations through the cork from the root structure? I haven't yet mounted a plant?

yes there are a couple but the plants are angled so they will grow out the ends too.
