Ideas for this container - Orchid Board

All. I found this container. It could go to the Goodwill or you could suggest an orchid for it. Something creeping, I would suppose. Remember, my conditions are intermediate. Ideas?

I should have measured it. It is the size of a small shoe box.Yes, it is quite porous. I have a small Brassie...way to small for that. I'll look up the other variety too...John, I knew you'd like it! And I could stuff it with moss and hang it. Thanks for the suggestion!

I would probably use it for an herb garden as that was my first thought when I saw it. Have fun finding the right orchid to enjoy in it!

If it were mine I would use it to house miniatures, several needing the same conditions. You could stuff a nice variety in there with something creeping as well. It's a cool pot!

I used to sell high end pottery when I had the nursery. I always enjoyed the weird and wonderful. Thanks. Keep suggesting.
