Like bromeliads, another epiphyte I mount without companions is the staghorn fern. I will mount two smallish stags together on a mount, simply so that can grow towards each other, producing a larger plant faster. Smaller mounts will have single plants though. I typically don't mount more than one orchid on a mount and as Elaine stated, I wouldn't mount Catt. with Phal. The main reason I stay with a single variety on a mount is because this is for sale, not for my pleasure. There is surely nothing wrong in having multiple orchids on a large mount, one variety or several varieties.

The reason it's so hard to lose weight when you get up in age is because your body and your fat have become good friends.
