wood and foliuos experiment

[flybyferns]

This is ghostwood from NEHERP and a formed pc if EpiWeb branch manufactured by:Folius EpiWeb is a terrific product !!!!!



ghostwood this is about 16" ( NEHERP)



unmodified epiweb branch of which is about 2" in diameter
-it is siliconed together at epiweb to form a round shape
-I modified this because the 'scale' is too big for where I want to us it
(see next pic )



I pulled it apart = identical pieces ( doubles your supply )
trim off the stuck silicone



trim of any angled/corners
( save the trimmings for helping to mount plant clippings onto wood pcs)



run it under the hottest water you can stand
Squish it !!! It will mold a little bit, but will not change the shape drastically
It will change just enough to take 'the squareness' out of it



Wrap it around your wood / or use it separately ! No rules

The upper R of the photos is the top.
-the branches are separated there, I plan to mount/hang a pilea plant.
( I am under -strict orders -from Bill to hang it )



lower down on the wood ( in the center) is a hollow area I will attempt to mount a bromeliad.
Bromelaids and I don't get along


I think I will use this one ? It's been growing out a long time and is ready.


Note: photo #2 compared to photo #5 ( after the 'trim and squish' ) --- There is a very big difference in the scale after this modification

Have Fun !
