You were talking about putting vines UP in your cage. My suggestion with the water crystals was to get a small vase filled with water crystals (rather than water) and to place this vase up in the branches where you want your vines to be.
>>For the orchids....where do you mount them?
>>So would mounting orchids work best? How would I mount them? I think i would like to try this as I know I could mist them daily and give them lots of water...but how woudl I mount them because all I have in the cage is tons of sticks floating in the air.
Not WHERE you mount them. Mounted orchids means that the orchid has been mounted on a piece of wood or bark, rather than potted. Orchids and tillys are epiphytes- meaning they grow on trees, but not as parasites. I suggest using mounted orchids because then they would be on the wood itself and you wouldn't have a pot to worry about.
