Tolumnia popoki 'Mitzi'
|
This orchid which is also called "Oncidium Dancing Lady" was purchased in 2009. This miniature oncidium is also commonly called equitant oncidium. The intense purple to dark red hue has a tendency to fade away rather quickly, so by the time these photos were taken, the flowers looked a little 'washed out'.

A) By May 20, we have at least fourteen flower buds emerging from the single flower stem. |

B) The entire orchid in full bloom on June 14. |
 |
C) Beautiful blooms on June 14th. |
I posted about this particular orchid in 2014. If you click on the link from 2014, you can really see how this orchid has grown.

D) A final close up of our Dancing Lady. |
I hope you have enjoyed the photos from my post today. Unfortunately, all the blooms have wilted away today. But these flowers do last for almost one month. That is what I love about orchids.
