I have a Dend unknown growing in half a coconut. But I slip it from top to
bottom instead of horizontaly. I mounted after it dried. I put some moss
between the plant and the coconut and a bit more in the front for show. It's
growing good and I water it the day before I water about every two days or
so since the only water it retains is in the moss.

I live in the Caribbean so weather here helps a lot.

Greetings ,

A friend gave me a whole coconut husk and all , so I sawed it in half ,
and
removed the inner hard coconut .
well the dog got one half , and tore it in two pieces, but I salvaged the
two pieces, now should I let them dry completly before mounting, or just
go
for it and mount the orchids I have ready for them ?
heres the orchids to be mounted
Enc. cordigera x Enc. nursery rhyme
Ctna. maui maid "ivory dolls" x Enc belenzsis
Mtssa Howards Dream...or we think thats the name?

Any advice is appreciated....!
Thanks & Good growing
Todd
