TOLUMNIA - HOW TO MOUNT AND WHAT KIND OF CARE?
Hi there,
A couple of weeks ago I purchased a Tolumnia Red Berry at a garden show.
Reading up on it a little more I find that it does not like to be kept too wet.
Having read this in several places, I am starting to consider mounting it onto bark.
I have never mounted an orchid and I am not sure how to care for it afterward.
What should the size of the piece of bark be, how much sphagnum moss do I attach under the plant (if any), do I only spray the roots when watering .... ?
So many questions
I would appreciate input to help me make the right desicion - to mount or not to mount?
Thank you!
