How Bout This
How would you grow them, in a whole sponge or would you cut it up into
blocks? If your going to cut it up in to blocks, you could just use rockwool, but I had no luck with phals in rockwool, too wet it kills the roots, I think that if you wanted to grow a phal in a basket or mounted a sponge might work to keep the moisture. Jack |

How Bout This
On the subject - I don't recall ever seeing anyone advocating Loofa
sponge? Has anyone tried it? I have a piece from my wife's pampering body stuff and am thinking of mounting an Angraecum calceolus to it - but it's the only angreacum I have and don't want to risk it yet - I'm a chicken! Bob Please let us know how it works. Anyone else want to tell what unconventional 'potting mix' you use? SuE http://orchids.legolas.org/gallery/main.php |

Bob I did not use that - I used a cactus spine that I picked up in a garden center in AZ. But the problem is they decompose faster than a sturdy branch... and a big hanging plant on a branch is at its best just before the branch falls apart. Loofa can decompose quite rappidly.
