Default Help!!!!! Need Tolumnia Picture!!

Hi y'all. I'm giving my first presentation as an AOS Student Judge in 2 weeks. I am in need of a picture of Tolumnia (syn. Oncidium) Golden Glow, a primary hybrid of triquetra x urophylla.

Can anyone help?

Thanks!!

Good luck, there. That's a Moir hybrid from 1957.

A Google image search would be your best bet.

Hello,
This is a message that I wrote to a girlfriend, Holly Miller, who is a student judge. See her answer below.

Subject: RE: Tolumnia golden Glow


Orchidwiz says there is picture in the Feb 1989 AOS Bulletin, page 119. His judging center should have all of the bulletins. But he probably already knew this and needs a picture that he can download into PowerPoint.

That's all Iknow.

Holly

Perhaps someone like Anita Aldrich in Texas would have such a picture? The original crosses were made in Hawaii by Moir and of course most of them don't exist any longer.

I'll send an email to Anita to see if I can inquire one for you. She will remember me from way back when I worked at an orchid store called Orchids & Ferns.
Will be in touch as soon as I get a response.

I sent the message over to Anita so all we can do is wait.

Hi ya'll!

Thanks for the help! I've been in touch with Anita, and she provided a photo.

Now if I could find Touch of Class and Fandango I'd be set!
