Of all the woods I use for mounting (eight!), I love cork the best. It is light (though I have some slabs that are 4" thick and very dense!), has a wrinkled surface so roots can latch on easily, resists mold, and does not retain water (important when growing epiphytes). I might add that cork has a very interesting presentation and not many people have ever seen cork, other than in a wine bottle.....LOL
