Dressing up an Archontophoenix cunninghamiana

Featured Replies

So my wife wouldn't let me pull out some Archontophoenix cunninghamiana's which were planted by our home's previous owners to make room for something more interesting.  My solution?  Dress them up.  Perhaps a Brassavola hybrid (Brassocattleya Richard Mueller x Brassavola nodosa)  orchid hanging in a basket, or a Laelia granulosa orchid tied off to a trunk with a Hoya hanging from it?  It sure makes looking out my office window at these rather common Archontophoenix a lot more interesting!  Amazing what a little makeover will do!!

Very nice!

That looks like a nice Hoya bella wax plant, too.
