Tolumnia (Oncidium) – Mixed Colour Mericlones (Flowering Size)
cancel Sold out
A beautiful selection of Tolumnia orchids, also known as the “Equitant Oncidiums”. These compact orchids are admired for their brilliant, butterfly-like flowers that appear on slender arching spikes. Colours vary across shades of pink, red, yellow, orange, and patterned combinations — all grown from mericlones but now separated from their original tags.
Each plant has a minimum of two mature growths and a new lead, and is fully flowering size. These are vigorous, well-established plants ready to bloom in the next season under suitable conditions. Sold as mixed colour selections — growers’ choice.
