Mounting plants is a creative way to design and display plants that are growing on a piece of wood or bark. These living art pieces are beautiful and easy to make. Stick around and I’ll show you how to mount a plant!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mounted Plants<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you follow me on Instagram, you probably know all about my wall of mounted plants. It’s my favorite wall in the house! Years ago I started hosting plant mounting workshops with my good friend Cory Paul. We’ve taught hundreds of people how to create these beautiful pieces of living art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mounted plants are a combination of epiphytic plants and moss that have been creatively and carefully secured onto a piece of wood or bark. Doing so mimics the plants in their natural environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Epiphytic Plants<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Epiphytic plants grow on other plants and trees and pull their water and nutrients from the air and dead debris around them. Epiphytic plants don’t require much soil to grow which makes them perfect plants for mounting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The best plants for mounting are Hoya species, Rhipsalis species, Monstera species, Platycerium species, Bromeliad species.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
