Default Many Of my New mounts are soooo Happy ;)

Hi Ya's!!

I got my baby to build me another shade home for my chids! And I've been mountin' and mountin' so I can hang em' outside!!

So last Sunday he built the first one with all the mounts on it, and then today the second one with all the pots on it.

They LOVE BEING OUTSIDE
As the mounts that have been out there for a week, have sooooo many Big, Phat Beautiful roots on them!!! Like I've never ever seen before!! When they were all in my greenhouse, they weren't this happy!!

I don't do most Dendros or large, "floofy orchids". For me it's minis (like Angraecoides), Paphs, and others that crept in somewhere along the line. See my orchid list for complete collection (usually not current.)

Wow, Wow, Wow is all I can say. I LOVE IT!! Your Honey can come to my house and build me one. Great job on all the mounting. Looks like your really having fun now
All my mounted guys like growing that way too. Just got a Den Kuniko last week and mounted it. My catts, phals and other dens all do well. Getting ready to mount another den that hasn't done anything since I got it 1 1/2 years ago. I'll show him who's in charge here

You can hunnie!! Your's is better than mine!! Cooler weather in the summer! Not blistering 97-100 all summer like FL, is it? And, in the late fall, start taking them indoors. Or build you a small GH like mine! Cheap, cheap! Happy all summer, cozy all winter

U too, can do this Ms. Sheridan!! Even in Beautiful Oregon!!
