Hi Lyn,

Thanks so much for that suggestion about fern bark! I am not familiar with that medium, but will look it up. My little fern and orchid garden was relagated to my bathroom during the holidays, but I’m ready to bring it back out and give it some TLC.

Again, thanks for sharing you tips. Sounds like you’ve done this a few times!

Hugs, Lynn

The orchid and the ferns would welcome the same amount of watering, since the fern bark retains water beautifully – water or mist maybe once a week.

Hi Joy

What a great idea! There are so many ways to ‘customize’ the planter. If you do make it with colored stones, please take a picture and share it with me!

Hugs,

Lynn

It would add to the cost but would make it special for that pink bedroom or blue sewing room!

Hi Sara, I’m still trying to get mine to rebloom…no luck yet.

I have a crystal bowl that is very similar to the one you used, and it sits tucked away in a cabinet. This will be a great way to put it to use!
