Are there any orchids that would like growing on a nice limestone rock? I have a really nice one with lots of holes in it I just know it would love to be the home of an orchid, but which one?
Thanks...Jean

C. walkeriana grow on limestone cliffs. I think any cattleya hybrid with C. walkeriana in it's background might be a good candidate.

Thanks Tucker, but I should have explained that it is a small rock 6x4x2 inches. I think a cat would be too big. Does anyone think that a neo would work?
Any other suggestions?....Jean
