It will be built on a wood stand. I am thinking of a black stand with no stone on it. I have pressure treated wood ready to be cut and measured. So far I am using a construction adhesive that hardens in 15 minutes, with instant grabbing power. Then filling it in with cement.
As for accent plants,
I have a few types of moss, air plants and small aquatic plants if space allows.
Pictures of my progression will be posted. I have had several comments from friends and family who have seen it. So far they say it looks great, and very "real" looking.
I am only holding off on the pics, because I want to present it with the best shots. I have taken many pictures as I have been building it, but I am taking it apart several times to get it to fit right.
I just hope it's not too heavy, LOL.
Fortunately, I have a dolly to tote it around.
