You can use fishing line to tie it, i'm not sure of any other methods however, i just know of this one.
Is the elasti-band tight?

The elastic band will work, as will just plain thread or thin yarn. As fantail mentioned, you can use fishing line.

Try using a cotton thread... it will be eventually biodegraded and by that time the roots of your Java ferns or Anubias will have anchored themselves to the driftwood.

apparently it takes anywhere from 3 - 6 months 4 anubias to fully attach itself.

Ditto Marco - I think it will take at least a few weeks... Good luck!
