Thanks very much everyone

Tetauan, The plant in the background is a chlorophytum comosum or commen name is spider plant. The flowers on these are small but sweet, they also grow out little planets,so you'll have lots of spider plants to share.

Thumbs up

nice plants..The Tolumnia really looks great, very healthy and clean all of them good job!!! ..


I go back and forth with mounted plants. I cant keep em watered enough to keep me happy. You can hose the mounted plants all day long if you have the time. I keep my few mounted ones wrapped in coco fibre just around the roots to help me some. I purposely use a very open mix now bec Im a hopeless happy waterer. it does get to a point where its gets old.

I have two of these, actually they belong to my wife. One of these plants growing in 3l plastic pot with river sand as media, have two 'planets' and its looking fantastic.

Thank you Lagoon!
