This is the plant that I mentioned in my Monthly Status Report that I bought for £1 at the local garden centre. I assume its some kind of oncidium type - but as its very close to flowering, I thought it might be fun to have some guesses at what it actually is!
The plant was completely dehydrated when I bought it, with one mature pseudobulb and a new growth just starting. It looked like it wanted to live, so I brought it home and its been recovering ever since... Its had a pretty hard life up 'til now!!
Here is a photo of the bud:
And the mature pseudobulb:
Anyone care to guesstimate what this is going to be?
I don't grow any of these types, so I don't have a clue!
