Default Crape myrtle wood - a good mount?
I have some seasoned pieces of crape myrtle wood - has anybody used this to mount orchids? Is it a good medium?
Thanks - Nancy

Yup, it's nice and hard. Virgil, I was thinking of the same site! I really like them - nice healthy plants, interesting crosses, and very reasonable prices for the size. Sorry, back to topic.
