Totem poles
 

My husband is fantastic. He created two totem poles fore to hang my orchids from recycled wood. Wood from a sliding wooden door from our parents place. Now the bulbos and dens can have more light. http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/08/17/3emygaqy.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/08/17/ve7esupy.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/08/17/qatape6a.jpg

It is hard to take a pic of the whole pole to see the plants but this is a great way to create space. I find all my bulbos do better mounted than in a pot anyway. The slugs n snails and worms can't get to them.

What a beautiful area - your husband is very creative!

Awesome! It looks great!

:hello It's a lovely oasis you both have. Am I correct in thinking that you're able to keep plants outside all year? And...is the hubby for hire?:rofl::blushing: All your photos are wonderful and I always look forward to seeing them.

Clever husband and awesome space!

Thanks all!! :) Unfortunately the hubby is not for hire.... And yes, I can keep my orchids 'outdoors' the whole year cause I am in the tropics. This is one growing area, the more 'civilised' one, away from fauna of a real garden so fewer pests, spiders, slugs... the one at the back of the house gets all sorts of insects. But I have to live with it so as not to kill all of us with too much insecticide etc!

Impressive growing area for your orchids! It seems to have space for many more orchids
