Rodrumnia
Does any one know the difference between Rodrumnia versus Tolumnia? I just got these five Rodrumnia from Hawaii. I'm happy to have acquired these plants. Here is a group picture.

Rodrumnia is Rodriguezia x Tolumnia, but most you will see have a fairly small percentage of Rodriguezia ancestry and won't look much different than typical Tolumnia hybrids. Unless you know a plant is a first generation 50% Rodriguezia hybrid treat it just like Tolumnia. Even then, Rodriguezia/Rodrumnia requirements aren't much different than Tolumnia, maybe just a bit less light and a bit more moisture.

Thanks PaphMadMan for your information. This will really help me grow these plants. I already have several Tolumnia that are doing well so I'll grow these Rodrumnia like Tolumnia.

You're welcome...
Remember to post some pictures when they flower. Do you know the names of your Rodrumnias?

Hi Matt. One minor correction. The second one is Rodrumnia Nalo x Rodrumnia (Spunky x Just Splendid). Looking forward to seeing photos of your blooms.
