Arachnid, I have always been interested in staghorn ferns.
Is it better to mount the plant on driftwood or is any screened spagnum moss thingy ok.  Quote: |

Most of mine are mounted on cedar or cyprus. I have some that are growing in normal pots filled with dirt as well.
The ones that I mounted myself were done with a moss type "dirt" made for orchids. they are doing pretty well ....but how i attached them to the board could have been better. I'll have to remount several of them this summer. |

I've found several pots in the past at walmart and lowes. Keep your eyes peeled, it is funny where you can find them sometimes.l

I'll try to do that tomorrow ....some of the leaves are yellowing due to the length of sunlight ...but big base for the size of the plant...
no doubt it will bounce out in the spring. You can be the judge. =) |
