Mounted NOID Tolumnia in Bloom
This is blooming at the moment. I am truly amazed at the way this plant can change bloom colour based on temperature. When I bought this in bloom several years ago it was all dark pink with a small amount of white. The past two winters I have bloomed it in a cool greenhouse and this is the colour it develops. Last year the old spike from January grew a new branch in March and the flowers bloomed bright pink. The sun was warmer and temps warmer in the greenhouse by then making a big difference in bloom colour. It will be interesting to see if this happens again.
