Thank you Donna! I have some new videos coming soon with new projects finished in my green space.

Look amazing

[@sandraw50]

While i was enjoying the video, my puppy did not stop going from the front to the back door while watching because of your neighbor's dog. It was so funny . Thank you for sharing! You had a great co-star too

[@naturenel]

I know! That dog has made it so difficult for me to film. I’m thinking that I may have to hold off on filming and only film when the dog is not barking. So I may be uploading less. I tried to give you guys more videos since it’s been requested many times, but with my business and busy schedule, I may just have to only film orchid fairs and nurseries. It sad but it’s is what it is. Neighbors sometimes just don’t realize they live amongst other people.

[@XCARETT1]

Thank you very much Nel for the video, it was instructive. And what a coincidence, a few months ago I acquired the seidenfadenia mitrata and I really like it, it makes spectacular spike flowers. Thanks again, I follow you. Best regards❤

[@naturenel]

You will love the fragrance of the seidenfadania mitrata. They smell delicious😌

[@kellybarrett6253]

Hi Nelson! Thank you for another informative AND entertaining episode ☺️ The Phal was my favorite but then at the end when you showed the wall, well, just beautiful arranging. Can you call animal control on your bad neighbors? It can be anonymous. Such a sorrowful bark, and all day? 🙏

[@naturenel]

Hi Kelly! Glad you enjoyed it. I had fun doing this one. I’ve been thinking about calling animal services. It’s so abusive. That poor dog stays out all day until they come home late afternoon. He barks with no rest. It’s insane.

[@rosaolivera1141]

Love it 😉

[@erintrent1523]

Morris the project manager!! Thanks for the instructional video. I'll be sure to send a photo of my staghorn fern once I get it mounted. Love your grid wall.

[@naturenel]

Lol! Yeah Moris was like a stage manager. He was so funny. I quit enjoyed him up on the table with me. 😻

[@bruno00147]

Hi , I have been watching your videos and really enjoy them. This one on mounting is very informative and you make it look so easy. I have been mounting some of my orchids also, do to space. I think you are really doing a great job and making it fun too, especially showcasing Simba and Morris. LOL

[@naturenel]

Awe! Thank you Jennifer. I enjoy making these videos for you guys. 💚

[@PC-zg3eo]

Great video! I can’t believe the quality of your videos seeing that you just started your channel. 👍

[@naturenel]

Than you PC.❤️ I really appreciate you. It’s comments like these that keeps me going. These past few videos were very challenging to put out. I worked hard to make sure I can put something out there of great quality. But I had some incredible challenges the past few weeks with neighbors constant dog barking, the other neighbors doing coral digging, and then a bunch of technical issues. So thank you for lifting my encouragement to do more videos. 🙏🏼

Love 2 c moris just like my cat 🐈 always want 2 get involved when i do gardening 👨‍🌾

[@naturenel]

Yes! He wants to be front and center if whatever I’m working on. He’s so adorable 😻

[@sandiesorchids9387]

😂😻🐾Love that some much better than using fishing line. I need to find myself a Seidenfadenia mitrata they all look so great.

[@naturenel]

The fishing line sometimes can cut through the roots. I like better the tie wraps. And much fast to attach.

[@normabenford4289]

Just wanted to tell you how much I enjoy you interacting with Morris … Pure love

Did you mount the Ciliare like we discussed?

[@naturenel]

Hey Frank! Nope. I’m looking for the perfect mount. It has to be large. It’s a pretty large sized plant.

Great episode as always! Let me tell u that piece of wood was perfect for that phal! I love how kt looks there!!

[@naturenel]

Thank you Niury. I agree! When I picke it up, the idea popped in my mind on how it would look. You see in the video in my face like oh yeah! This is definitely gonna be the one. I am in love with that one. And it’s about to bloom. I lost the tag. I have to wait to see what it is. 🤔

Thanks Linda! Glad you liked it. It’s super easy to mount the orchids. And fun!

[@annettamackey1538]

Hello Nelson. Firstly a beautiful learnjng video on mounting. It gives me plenty of ideas how to mount. Secondly, I wish you had situated a different way. The combination of shade & light makes the video somewhat unclear in certain spots for me. I wear glasses😟I found myself trying to bring the phone closer. Thirdly, I think you should have tended to the neighbour's dog.🙉it is so agitated that it makes me want to call animal control. Otherwise love what you share with us. Thanks for sharing love alway❤ Morris took the show!😂 love the end... you are A Show off!🤴

[@naturenel]

I hear you. The dog is very annoying. Unfortunately there is nothing I can do about it. I live out in the ranch area so the police does not get involved on noise issues. The laws here are very loose. Also I own a business plus run a ranch. My time is extremely limited. I do my vidrios whenever I can squeeze one in. I’m always waiting for the right moment to film, but that can take days. On the other side I have my viewers asking for more videos. So it’s been very challenging for me to do my channel in perfect conditions. When it comes to lighting, wind factor, dogs barking or any other outside disruptions, I can not fix it. I try my very best to bring you guys the clearest most detailed imagery. But it’s been a constant problem lately. This video was filmed when I got home from work and the sun was starting to go down. I don’t have studio lights or another spot in my ranch that I can film with light. Also if you are watching a how to do video on your phone, you will miss out the details. I replayed it on my iPad and tv and it looks very clear. Try watching the how to do videos on a different device. It’s way better.

[@notafraidtogarden4806]

Great tutorial Nelson. The orchids look wonderful on the wood slabs. Are you thinking of mounting a staghorn fern? I love them on mounts and you have some good pieces for that. Morris is so cute and a natural on video. 😁 I want to mount an orchid like this also in the future. Enjoy your wonderful weather. 👍👍

[@naturenel]

Hi there!👋🏼 I have thought of doing a stag horn mount. But I want a large leafed stag horn. Everything out there is small and expensive.

[@notafraidtogarden4806]

@@naturenel so true. Find a friend that has one and do a plant swap. 👏 They grow so beautiful in Florida because you grow them outside. 😁

[@jodeming5088]

Both orchids look wonderful on the mounts. Morris really likes you. Thanks for the fun and another great video.

[@shirleyholt898]

Very good video I enjoyed watching.the orchids looked great 👍

[@Muffin21814]

I love how the phalonopsis looks on that mount. I put mine straight on the mount and put sphagnum on top and pull it off after a week, because they don't need it after they establish, that way you don't have to mess with it when the moss goes bad. They attach really fast. ( I hate saying anything, because your plants are always gorgeous, but we live in fla and they really don't need the moss). I also have a hard time keeping that green wire tight. It seems to start loosening up after a bit. 😊😊👍

[@naturenel]

The moss is to help the plant acclimate into its new environment. If you have a Phal that is already free rooted, you can definitely put it straight on there. But I’m my experience I’ve tried both ways and the one with moss shows to acclimate much faster as well as attach to the mount sooner. I only put a little bit on the mount and then fill some areas with moss. It will eventually fall off little by little until there is no moss. Here in Florida we get away with allot. But someone watching my tutorial up north keeping their orchids indoors would definitely need to use moss.as far as the wire, I’ve never had a problem with tightness I have some that are over 3 years old with no issues.

[@chantalvillemure2595]

Love your co-star! 👑

[@craft2bsane]

Thanks for the instructional video. Very entertaining with Morris helping out :) Is he named after Morris the cat that used to appear in commercials in the 70s? I'm dating myself HAHAHAHA!

[@naturenel]

He belongs to my neighbor. He named him but I’m sure it’s after Moris from the cat food commercials. Lol! Moris thinks he is my cat. He is alway outside waiting for me. Too cute😻

[@genizi]

Many thanks for the mounting video tutorial. It was very detailed. I shall try to mount a few. You are a great teacher. Thanks again. Enjoy your blooms.

[@naturenel]

Thank you!🤗

[@MsNipri]

Thank you for the Wood Mounting Class! Your co-host Morris was awesome! ❤

[@naturenel]

You’re welcome! It was my pleasure. And Moris was the icing on the cake. He is so adorable 😻

[@patsfreund9164]

You did a fantastic job on these mounts. You clearly explained exactly what you were doing to put these orchids on mounts. Your instructions are very easy to follow. Well done! And, the video was just short enough for me to enjoy watching without feeling time constraints. Simba didn't steal the show - he was an added extra. (Your sponsor might want to link this video on mounts to his website.) Looking forward to watching your next video, but, please don't feel pressured to put out a specific number of videos each week (you will risk burn out).

[@naturenel]

Thank you Pat. I wanted the tutorial to be clear enough and easy enough for the viewer. This past week I was really busy with my video making. I needed to get some out since the holidays was so busy for me. I have a feeling this spring it’s gonna be an explosion of flowers. Lots of spikes beginning to form.

[@johnhovancsek138]

How to get an orchid off a mount is so tricky. I had one on this tiny mount that got so big I had to take it off. Thanks for the video

[@naturenel]

Best way to remove an orchid from its mount is saturate the roots as much as possible. If it’s been on a mount for years, best thing to do is incorporate the existing mount onto the new mount. I just remounted a Cattleya on wood mount onto a cork. I simply placed the wood mount over the cork and attached it tightly. It actually gave it a much more regal look.

[@bibicheknauf4163]

Great video. Thanks a lot. I have the same orchid but I think I mounted it on something too narrow so, I am going to redo it👍. I admire your ignoring the dog, he drove me crazy and I,love dogs😱

[@naturenel]

Oh you have no idea how much patience I practice daily. Those people are horrible. They got the dog last year and don’t pay attention to it. The dog barks from morning to late afternoon. It’s so annoying and very abusive. You have no idea what I go through to make videos in my own home. It is what it is. Everyone has that disgruntled, careless neighbor.
