How do you water them? Can you run a hose on them

Hi Sharry, unfortunately no, this is condo and 5th floor, 2x a week I have 3 hours soaking and spraying with bottles, than in between just spraying and misting with bottles. The soaking takes really over 3 hours, but must be done in the summer time at least twice a week!

It really looks great and I'm sure the plants are very, very happy.

It's a shame that you can't just use a hose out there...that would save so much time. Have you looked into getting a hose that attaches to the sink...long hose...you could spray in place and that would save you a lot of that soaking time. Just a thought.

Nice set up. Spanish Moss has saved a lot of my orchids. Recently had major tree trimming done and the moss is hanging all over my tree, makes it look like Halloween, but better that then burned leaves.
