I have had no luck finding anyone. They are either too busy or just don't return calls. I'm going to call the University Of Florida Gardening Solutions County Extension on Monday morning.

Won't the company that trimmed your tree help you out?

Do you know what variety your platycerium is? My guess would be a bifurcatum which is the most common variety, but whatever it is must be a beauty. Now that the weather is getting warmer, don't let it dry out.

When you finally get it situated, please post a photo, and please -- let us know how you make out with having it rehung.
