Sounds interesting. How about posting a pic on ABPO. Would really like to
see how it looks. I've been thinking about making a small branch but don't
have room or time at the moment.
Cheers

The tree is up and growing well. Well actually it ended up being 3 trees
and one hanging branch!

They seem to require more water now but I figure that is due to the fact
that
the roots are not in protective pots.

I mist them a couple times a day as well as water them every other day
when its very warm I water them every day.

I was working on how to attach them to the trees when I was I hade a great
idea. Stockings! I dug out a couple of old pair of stockings and cut them
into lengths that I thought would hold the root ball and mix, tied the end
off
wrestled the orchid and mix into it and bingo! A silk nest for the
orchids!

I attached these to the tree with a dark colored cotton thread.
It looks like a spider went to town building!

The keikes that I have I just tucked against the trees and wrapped in
stocking.

Every thing seems to be growing so well, new growth and new flower spikes.

They love it! I would say that if you have a small corner to give it a
try.
Mine sits in the south west corner of My conservatory and is very lovely!
