Manzanita is a good choice. Andy's Orchids in So. Cal uses it extensively
for his mounted orchid species. I don't know how he preps it, if at all though. If you are interested, his site is at http://www.andysorchids.com/default.asp Good luck!

Hi All, I just stumbled on this thread, and am so glad.... as I was wondering if manzanita trunks and large branches would make decent orchid mounting material. Any opinions on that? This is manzanita that is native to Northern California. I have plenty of it on our property. Some of it pretty old and obviously dead looking. The red bark is all peeled away. Nothing but weathered, gray, gnarly twisted trunks and limbs. Pretty cool looking stuff! Wendy, how long do you soak the bark in Malathion and then in clear water? Also, have you ever tried manzanita for mounting your orchids? Thanks! Lori |
