Much happier than mine are...though mine do bloom too. That's a step up from 'I can't keep them more than 3 or 4 months'.
I have only two, but respectively 2 and 1 years old...so I can do it.

Nice flowers. Does that variety not make a bunch of keikis on long stems?

I haven't seen any new growths come from anywhere but the root mound in the pot so far. But I have no doubt if left to climb it would do so unfettered.



It is a nice head of flowers indeed for this plants 1st time blooming. Grown in otherwise horrible heat all summer for humans and pets, it kick starts these tropical orchids into submission.

Thanks!!

grown hot and dry high in the canopy max lighting under 50% shade cloth.



each flower comes complete with its own little angel unfolding into the bloom.



thanks for looking .

I have two tolumnias, both have flowered this year. I suspect I might be not giving them enough light, their blossom stalks are less compact than yours, but still glad to see them.
Considering I used to kill them quickly, I'm glad that these are 2-4 years in my care..and they're still here

The color and dense gorgeous flower spikes are breathtaking! Makes me come back and take another look at this plant. It is so well grown!

I got a couple of these back in June, the first of which just bloomed! Not as clean looking as yours yet, but it’s a work in progress!
