Tolumnias in Bloom
Here are a few Tolumnias in my collection that are in bloom or were recently in bloom. The first is Rodrumnia Elation 'Pam'. This plant was given an Award of Merit by the American Orchid Society Judges on April 5, 2016.

This is Rodrumnia Nalo Dancer 'Pam'. This plant received an Award of Merit from the Honolulu Orchid Society Judging Panel in June 2014. The blooms this year are just as attractive as they were two years ago.

This is Rodrumnia Aiea Polka Dots. A sister plant of this cross was recently awarded an Award of Merit by the Honolulu Orchid Society Judging Panel.

All three are very nice. I would be hard pressed to pick a favorite.

So pretty, I think 2 and 3 are my favorites. OK I can't pick just one.

No, I'm still trying to stop myself. But I will fail soon I'm afraid.
