I am doing a new project in the greenhouse. I finally removed a huge heliconia from the front corner that was going to eventually outgrow the space and cause trouble. It was over 20 ft tall and had a too-large spread. Now I have plans for a whole new look. I have started part one...yesterday. This is a step by step before and after, and its YOUR chance, during this period of bad winter weather when you may be stuck inside looking for something of a diversion, to put in your 2 cents worth. If this was YOUR project...what would YOU do with it?? This corner is the closest to the greenhouse pond. The pond is literally right in front of it, so I want the corner to reflect kind of like a nice waterside grotto. There will be palms, philodendrons/epipremnums, bromeliads...what would YOU add???
Here is a series of three photos. First I wired up four 2 ft panels of cork bark to the corner post, and mounted a selection of bromeliads, orchids, and a hoya vine start onto it. I used Phalaenopsis, Dendrobium and Epidendrum orchids, and also have a few independent ones hanging at thebottom that may or may not stay once the clombers get installed.
