hmmm, it would probably be expensive to ship here. It must be available somewhere in France or NL, but I just don't know where! Maybe I should check out the french orchid forums.

Al, do you think phals will enjoy being mounted like this? Almost up side down?

Ania, the plant in the first picture......give it another turn so the leaves are like the plant in the second picture which is perfect.
The 'top' leaves in the first pic are going to droop down over the crown.......gravity will come into play.
Anyone else agree? Disagree?

This is great Ania. I really enjoy seeing how creative members are when it comes to showcasing their orchids. You've done a really nice job with this. How are you able to keep all that pretty wood furniture safe from all the watering these need?

Keep posting updates. Enjoy!

It's not made of wood I think that's the reason why it has survived so much time with orchids

That's perfect Ania, now all you have to do is watch that they don't dry out.
Are the phals NOID's or do you know the names?

Thank's for your help Al

You're welcome, please post pictures of it when it blooms. It sounds beautiful. Of course, all phals are beautiful to me.......I have about 75 of them.

I'll post tehm for sure, I wouldn't be able to resist
So... if you have 75 phals that means, that I can buy some more, about 50! I'll tell my family... they won't be happy about that
