I'll be looking for a few more at our orchid show in a couple of weeks. I bought Genting 'Volcano' there last year. They're a lot like potato chips....you can't have just one!

Ethan I love your Tolumnia's I have 4 and my Genting Volcano is reblooming on the same spike. I did a bad thing on the Genting Pink Lady she was blooming when I got her and cut the spike when it was done blooming. I found out later not to cut the spike as they might rebloom and mine did.

I am going to by more of those little gems......

Thanks for all the nice words, guys!

It appears there is an endless number of Tolumnia hybrids out there and there are some that are soooo beautiful - really intense color combinations. Unfortunately (or luckily) they don't seem to be readily available at the garden centers or orchid shows.

The best part is they are so tiny...I just hang them from my ficus tree and they don't take up any room (not that I have any extra room).

Ethan, they are all soo beautiful that I would have a difficult time if I had to select only one. I have 3 blooming now but will buy a couple more if I see them. I just bought more vandas,(/2 price), wish they came in smaller sizes with the same size flowers. I think I should switch my wishes to tolumnia.

I just bought 200 tolumnia hybrids... I think 11 different crosses. Someday I'll get around to listing them on the website.

Love the darn things.
