Good luck with mounting your orchid, twinofmunin. Mine seem to do best in the vanda baskets and large chunks of red lava rock.

I just bought yet another C. Mini Purple. Every time I see a walkeriana primary hybrid, I am tempted.

I have a mini purple I got in 2014 and it is still not looking like it's going to bloom any time soon. It does put up a new growth yearly. It is in a basket with lava rock also, but it just doesn't seem to be happy. I water it every 2 or 3 days when the rocks are dry and I use kelp max once a month and inococur (spelling?) once a month temps are average, under t-5s, good humidity. Don't know what I'm missing to make it happy.
