Their blooms, borne on short spikes, come in a wide range of colors including vibrant yellows, oranges, pinks, and purples, often with intricate patterns and markings. Despite their diminutive size, their flowers are striking and can last for several weeks.
How To Care
Light: Tolumnia orchids prefer bright, indirect light.
Water: Water Tolumnia orchids thoroughly when the potting medium is almost dry. Allow the water to drain completely to prevent waterlogged roots.
Fertilizer: Feed Tolumnia orchids regularly during the growing season (spring to early fall) with a balanced orchid fertilizer diluted to half-strength.
Temperature: These orchids thrive in warm temperatures, ideally between 70-85°F (21-29°C)
Potting: Use a well-draining potting mix specifically formulated for orchids, such as a blend of bark, sphagnum moss, and perlite. Repotting is typically necessary every one to two years or when the potting medium breaks down.
Pruning: Remove spent flowers and yellowing leaves promptly to encourage new growth and prevent the spread of disease. Trim any dead or decaying roots during repotting.
