Help with Stanhopea potting

[SG in CR]

Has anyone ever tried growing Stanhopeas by mounting them to the outside of a basket? I grow mine mounted to trees and palms and would imagine that doing that would avoid the problems that might arise from the flower shoot having to burrow down through the media and the basket on its way out. Then you could also fill the basket with more durable media like bark mixed with some moss for moisture retention.
