Tolumnia veluntina - First bloom seedlings. Seems to be a popular miniature that is easy to acquire.



Grew these from a flask. Took about 3 years to mature (grown in a terrarium). Kept less than a dozen, gave away a couple dozen.

That is awesome

Well done

I can’t even do seedlings. Way to go

Appreciate the compliment and kind words, DC.

My terrariums really come in handy for me (a big help) when growing out very young orchids, especially getting them beyond the vulnerable stage until they get a toe-hold.

The only drawback ~ the waiting game. Kind of like that old Tom Petty song: "The waiting is the hardest part". But, when you enjoy the orchid hobby it's definitely worthwhile (and helps fine-tune the patience aspect of orchid growing).

Any Tom petty reference is a winner with me
