Hoping someone can help me, I have to 2 small Elk-Horns that I would like to mount on boards but I have no idea where to start.
Are there any other clues to keeping Elk-horns I should know.
How to mount a Elk-horn fern on a board.?
I have found you 2 good sites that explains how to mount Elkhorn and Staghorn Ferns. They explain how to do better than I could.

Reply:you can make a potting pouch out of chicken wire, staple it or nail it to the board. Then fill pouch with sphagnum moss and whatever potting soil you are using for the plants. Keeping them moist is a bugger, so you might want to put a layer of moss then a "plastic baggie affair inside with a single drainage hole then soil and moss for effect.
This is how we mounted bromeliads, so I'm assuming the fern would be about the same. Also there are flat sided pots for mounting on walls.......you'll have to search the web a bit I imagine.
Reply:Here's how you go about mounting Elk horns.
