If you use glue, the best is Liquid Nails. The bromeliads seem to love it. Large plants I attach with screws and wire, something you can't indulge on a live tree.

thanks, Harry,
if the bark rots it should be good for the plants, right? One more question.
How do you secure them initially? I tried a recommended glue with
tillandsias and whatever the glue touched, died. The wrapped fishing line
leaves something to be desired.
Thanks,
Valerie
