Question What Tolumnia is this?

Hello orchidboard,

I hope you're all coping well in these trying times!

I finally got my first Tolumnia bloom. Unfortunately, it was the one that was labelled 'Tolumnia assorted' at the nursery...

I think you had mentioned your Tolumnia potting on one of my Tolumnia posts last year. LECA seems to be a popular favourite with many people online. It's usually unavailable or very expensive where I...

Oh, I completely understand! I thought pumice was working well in the first month but after a while the leaves dried up. So yes, these are all experimental and I, too, am waiting to see how they turn...

Very insightful as always, thank you! I think I'll go in for coconut husk chips then. All 6 of my Tolumnia are thriving in them!

Thank you! Would big coconut husk chunks work? I have a bunch of them sitting around. They've worked wonders for all my Oncidiums, Tolumnias and Dendrobiums.

I'd like to pot my new Vanda tessellata, what's the best way?

Hi orchidboard!

It's been a while since my last post. Back then, I think I was just shy of 5 or 6 orchids, and now my collection stands at a proud 18!

The latest addition is a Vanda tessellata...

Question Phalaenopsis ARK Green Angel with yellow, translucent leaf spots

Hi orchidboard!

I got myself my first Phalaenopsis a week ago. When I got it at the nursery, it looked picture-perfect. The roots were healthy, the leaves were firm and unblemished. It has two...

Thank you, this puts me at ease! I do want to keep the orchid for as long as possible. Pine bark is currently unavailable where I am at the moment, but I will repot it as soon as I can.

White mold on Oncidium Nanboh Waltz pine bark

Hello,

Is there something wrong with my friend's Tolumnia?

Hi orchidboard!

I'm plant sitting for a friend. He got a Tolumnia a week or so before I got two of mine. His Tolumnia is at least twice the size of mine but looks a little limp and wrinkly. My...

I've been watering them everyday. I removed the top few layers of pumice to expose the roots a little. The whole thing stays wet for a few hours, before going damp and drying by around 5-6pm.

What is this growing on my Tolumnia?

I repotted my Tolumnias today, which involved gently manipulating roots away from the crown. They were in a small germination chamber earlier so the roots had grown upwards encasing the base of the...
