Default I've got wood...

I trudged home with these three pieces of driftwood, cleaned it thoroughly and then...I can't make up my mind about what to put on them. They're big enough to take large phals or even reasonably sized catts. Hmmph! Which? Any ideas?

Just a note, and perhaps you've already done this: If the wood is driftwood from saltwater, be sure to soak it, changing the water a few times to be sure that salt is gone.

The wood is beautiful. Your choice should be whatever mountable orchid grows well for you, in conditions you can provide. Looking forward to seeing the completed project.

Thank you but I have already cleaned it. It had moss growing on it so I presume that much of the pollutants had been washed out.
