    Taking this beautiful Pandora-scape as reference, can anyone enlighten me how the plants (and what species) may be attached to the 'floating rocks'?

    actually moss easily attaches to rock/wood ... i usually use string or fishing lines to tie them to the rock/wood ... give it a few weeks and you will see them growing out nicely ... after that, you can remove the string
    ... always look at the bright side of life

    The mos is either tie or slot into the crack on the rocks. I personally don't like glue-ing because end up with glue patch on the rocks.
