Tolumnia Red Berry
This orchid started its spike on December 5th. In general, my tolumnias have taken about two months to bloom after first starting a spike. This one seems to be on the same schedule, and will probably be opening its first flowers in another week or so.
The spike is only 6" tall--half the height of the spike this orchid had when I purchased it. This is probably because this tolumnia doesn't have very many roots. The dry period over the holidays likely didn't help either. I expect that the smaller spike will also have fewer flowers.
