Miniature orchid

[spark]

I really love it. <3 It is awesome and adorable, and I can actually fit it on my windowsill.



it's a tolumnia sylvestre. It's supposed to be relatively easy to not kill, just keep humid but not soaked, warm temps, partial sun. Exactly the conditions of my windowsill! I'm misting it every day along with my lowland neps.

I really hope I can keep it well enough to see it bloom! I kind of think I might start collecting miniature mounted orchids. They're a nice solution to my having run out of windowsill space.

Nice specimen. Do show us when you get more mini orchids.

Looks cute.. we don't get many tolumnia species in malaysia but the hybrids are just adorable. Too bad they don't take heavy rain well..
