Description: Reclaimed eastern red-cedar (Juniperus virginiana) from naturally fallen trees. Extremely natural and aesthetic environment for your orchid collection – the way nature intended. Never repot your orchid again! No more root rot when your potting mix breaks down. No more potting mix habitat for snails, mealybugs and centipedes. Easily monitor your root health. Orchid roots hold on for life. Hand crafted by slicing cedar logs into approximately 2” thick slabs. Most are 8-12 inches in diameter. High quality stainless steel mounting hooks. Each piece is a unique work of nature.Cedar is extraordinarily resistant to rot and insects and has been used for fences, siding, log cabins, orchid baskets and even coffins. Cedar is wonderfully aromatic when cut. Many pieces have rough bark intact that orchid roots love to attach to and bury under. Disinfected with germicidal bleach.Perfect for phalaenopsis (especially warm growers), pendulous dendrobiums (like anosmum and nobile), angraecums, bifoliate cattleyas, schomburgkia, certain oncidiums, brassavola, bulbophylums, and small vandas (neofinetia).How to mount: Use natural cotton or jute twine to tie orchid firmly to mount. Use a small amount of sphagnum moss around the roots until the plant is firmly established on the mount. Note that Phalaenopsis roots tend to grow upward, while cattleya roots tend to grown downward. See pictures with several varieties of orchids mounted. Their roots love cedar! Mounted orchids need high humidity (over 60 percent) and should be watered often! Rainwater is best. Use extremely diluted fertilizer or organic fertilizer to avoid root burn.
