My mini-wall for mounting miniatures
 
Finally I am going more seriously into the miniature orchids culture. I love the plants mounted on cork tree bark, but maintenance is really hard -at least for me- so I started at indoor set up with artificial light. Basically is a wall of EpiWeb where are mounted the miniature orchids.

Watering is automatic by a water pump wit a timer that water 2 times at day

My main interest are american Pleurothallinids but I have few Bulbophyllums and other ones.

The species list currently growing:
Restrepia aristurifera
Restrepia elegans
Pleurothallis vulcanica
Pleurothallis linearifolia
Barbosella cogniauxiana
Barbosella prorepens
Masdevallia nidifica
Mediocalcar decoratum
Bulbophyllum acutum
Bulbophyllum lasiochilum
Bulbophyllum moniliforme
Porroglossum olivaceum

I will be posting the evolution of the set up... :waving

Very cool. Is the epiweb aerated enough to keep the roots from rotting?
