He's getting there.....yesterday, I caught him tenderly picking tiny snails off of our dormant Pachypodiums, and patting the Old Man Palm's beard...He even asked if our Aloe hybrid 'Blue Sky' would survive indoors if we found a cool pot for it.
I found a hunk of what seems to be old palm wood with moss completely covering it....it's crumbly but reminds me of squishy dry cork...I'll post a pic soon but I'm dying to mount something to it. Just feels right. Does anyone ever try to get moss to grow on their mounts using that possibly mythological buttermilk method?
