A leafless orchid would look KILLER(pun intended) on a skull! would be pretty cool, and you can find small leafless for reasonable prices now a days! They just need LOTS of humidity to do well.
I could see a small animal skull in a natural tank set up but the human skulls I looked at in the very first post gave me the creeps even if most of them were replicas. I don't think I could have that in my home anywhere. Actually, I know I wouldn't have one in my home anywhere. Do you all have wives that will let you have human skulls in your homes? Am I the only one getting the heevie jeevies over having a human skull on my coffee table?
i have no interest in usig a human skull. however i did do one of these mountings today. i put a mini Cattleya hybrid on a deer skull. Darla hasnt noticed it yet though she has walked by it several times
I'll never give up that red-blue thing because I get such a kick out of it. I doubt my wife would notice it either, but my daughter (12) would see it the first time she entered the room. Maybe even before. What a pest.
come to think of it the girls(7 and 10) havent noticed either. not that i would expect them to. about 2 years ago it took them 3 days to notice their dogs wre no longer in the house.
as to the red/blue issue, what ever keeps yah happy, got any new issues? im currently smoldering over a states rights versus feds overstepping their power issue
I have a nice sized C. walkeriana f alba 'Tanya' growing in a basket of animal bones; it is quite vigorous. In Volume I of Cattleyas and their Relatives: The Cattleyas, Withner states that he once found an excellent specimen of C. walkeriana growing in a planter of a steer skull; they like the calcium.
C. walkeriana also likes to go MUCH dryer than most Catts. Thats why they do much better mounted. They also bloom from the ryzome unlike many cats the bloom from the tip of the Pbulb.
