Default mounting epiphitic plants

I was hoping for advice on mounting plants such as a Rabbits foot fern or anthurim scandens. I have a foam back ground covered in beda beast. Would t be as easy a putting moss around the roots and anchoring it in place with string? Sorry for the remedial question. Im a novice in the hobby

I used some epoxy putty stuff used for mounting coral frags (it says plants too) and disguised it with some spanish moss and it worked great.
