I got an Olla! Hang it or Prop it?
My T5HO fixture had issues so into the shop I went, and naturally I came out with more than I brought in...I was surprised to see ollas for purchase. You definitely can't leave them in the ground over winter here and I've never seen one before. But I had read on OB about people using them as mounts and here we are.
I rinsed it and filled it with water to test it, and it seems to be puddling at the bottle. The sides are evenly moist, but the bottom drips.
Do those of you who use these as mounts usually hang them? It seems a bit drippy for that.
I'll play around with it a bit before I try an actual orchid on it. The plant I had in mind has been more active with its roots than I thought and is firmly rooted into its basket. Would Tolumnias or Twinkles do well on a clay mount?
