Shalene-
I posted some "orchids on a stick" (wire) here:
http://home.earthlink.net/~wisejt/
I drape some Spanish moss over the roots, and they seem to be doing fine. I've got mostly seedlings...cheaper that way...but they are starting to bloom for me. They allow more sun to get to the plants on the benches without the baskets, and they are very easy to maintain this way...no muss no fuss. I even trim the roots back when they get too long...
If you go to 'Greenhouse pics' at the bottom of the page...bottom photo, the vandas are hanging on the left side...You have a lot more room for more plants w/out baskets as well...
