Oscar, that's how the Japanese like to grow them. I've found that the Japanese style happens to work well for my conditions. The Neofinetias love it and I like how it looks too. From what I understand, it's supposed to look like a little tree on a little hilltop.
I had one in bark last year. Didn't do diddly squat until I potted it up like this and the roots started going nuts.
Very nice!!! I definetly have to learn more about these.

Looks great!!! I love growing them in the traditional Japanese style. I tried doing it but I couldn't keep the moss in the mount style. I tried using a soda bottle top as a mold but it wouldn't stay. I might need to find a better supply of moss!

I don't do most Dendros or large, "floofy orchids". For me it's minis (like Angraecoides), Paphs, and others that crept in somewhere along the line. See my orchid list for complete collection (usually not current.)
