Mini Phal Mounting Experiment
 
Hi all, I was thinking about a few miniature phalaenopsis...since my old orchids are doing great in the environment I have provided them Can anybody suggest a few mini phals on what should be a good start?
I stay in Bangalore in India where the temperature ranges between 90F and 70F with enough humidity.

Welcome to OB, The only mini phals that I have mounted are noid I mounted them on cork with a little sphagnum moss to help hold moisture in, there growing new roots but no new leaves yet

Try Phal parishii, Phal lobbii, Phal braceana, Phal wilsonii, Phal taenialis, Phal honghenensis, Phal lowii, Phal lindenii, or maybe Phal gibbosa if you're feeling a bit more confident.

Phal appendiculata is generally very difficult to grow properly over a long period of time. However, they do better when grown mounted, but they are definitely not for beginners.
