Default hang them

just to share with everyone, if space was your problem...mount the neps on fern barks or woody branches wrapped with sphagnum moss. sometimes neps were found in the wild to grow on moss pads of tree trunks and branches, with little nutrients except on incoming wind laden with moitsure, thus my idea of replication.
