What is this new growth? (Tolumnia)
Hi,
So I recently got this lovely little tolumnia orchid at my orchid society meeting. After studying it a little more closely, I noticed three little green growths near the base.
I'm thinking they might be flower spikes, but it seems the current flower spike and the remnants of previous ones seem to come from between the leaves. They are not roots, as there are roots growing which obviously look like roots. It seems to grow fat little fans of leaves, as opposed to how these look (long, thin, green and pointed).
Help me out! What are they??
