That is SOOO cool, well done on a wonderful orchid tree, only problem is now I want one nothing wrong with wanting but it doesnt mean I can have your 'chids look happy also I hope they grow well and bloom for you that is going to look even more amazing when they flower.

It really looks great!
Here are a couple of hints for you.
The phal should be mounted leaves down, roots up.
This is the way they naturally grow and eliminates the accidental water in the crown problem that leads to crown rot.
The Aerangis likes humidy. I had mine mounted on a cork slab for a year with it doing nothing until I moved it to my terrarium where the humidy runs between 50% and 60% and it took off with a new growth and blossom spike.

Good luck, I really like your imagination!

Al, about humidity: it about 60-80% all the time
Phals... I'll try to mount them as you suggest
Thanks!

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?
