Thanks, Randy and Bruce! I just loved this little cute thing and didn't know much about how to care for it... I think my instinct is working right...Love...LOL
Hi Margo
lovely Hybrid with great colors . Wonderful contrast .
Wish you become more blooms
Thanks, Andrea! May be I'll get more blooms on the next spikes, but even these 4 buds make me feel happy for now...
Nice contrasting colours, what is the actual size of the flower? It looks a lot like a Tolumnia.
It does look like Tolumnia. I just put what is on the tag, but I think they call them Tolumnia now?! The flower is little. No more than 1" long and about half inch wide. I can measure it when it blooms again in a few days!
Wainting for your next post. It's really lovely flower.
now isn't that a beauty! NICE!
