​Oncidiums

The commercially available Oncidiums are medium to large plants.  They are vigorous and, thanks to the hybridizers, come in a stunning array of colors and shapes.​

These are knockouts.  If the color does not dazzle you, the shape will.  Some of them look like spiders and others look like space aliens.  Their growing conditions are between Cattleyas and Phals.  A south, east, or west window will do.  Water when half dry, fertilize, and grow between 55 and 85 degrees.  Repot every two to three years or as they grow out of the pot.
