Tin, Tolumnias grow in tops of trees as twig epiphytes in Carribean. They like same light as Cats, like to be wetted every day (soaked, not misted) then dry out the roots by evening. I tried water 2-3 times per week and lost many leaves on my first one. Since then went to daily soaking, south window with supplemental CF lighting and drying by evening and there's lots blossoms and lotsa new growth. In my opinion, this would be a tough one for a orchidarium or Vivarium.

I don't do most Dendros or large, "floofy orchids". For me it's minis (like Angraecoides), Masdies, Paphs, and others that crept in somewhere along the line. See my orchid list for complete collection (usually not current.)
