Default Onc. Sharry Baby 'Misaki'

Hi all! Here is another one blooming in my collection right now. It's Sharry Baby 'Misaki'. The fragrance hasn't quite developed, but my fingers are crossed for something soon!

That is a very pretty flower. I have wanted to try something along this line and this might be a good candidate.

I don't do most Dendros or large, "floofy orchids". For me it's minis (like Angraecoides), Paphs, and others that crept in somewhere along the line. See my orchid list for complete collection (usually not current.)

It's a beauty, the color contrast is great. And, about the fragrance...I just walked in the room and it about hit me over! It's very strong but wonderfully smelling!

Wow, shopping for chids this weekend and will most definitely look for one, love the coloring contrast likewise. Found one a while back on a "4Sale" table but it was infested with some sort of ca-ca, not taking a chance. Sharry Baby looks thanks for the s

Thanks! This bad boy came from Walmart, believe it or not. They had quite a few a couple of months ago...brassias, onc., phals, and cats, so I picked this one up since I had been wanting a sharry baby. I'm very happy with the purchase!

Beautiful.. Do you have a craving for chocolate when you smell the fragrance?

I bought Sharry Baby 'Sweet Fragrance' on Ebay about a month ago and I sure hope I can get it to bloom. It will be interesting to see if the name says it all.

Does anyone else have this one??

I am new to oncidiums so need to find as much info as I can.

Oh my gosh, the fragrance on this one is intoxicating! The moment I walk into my office with all my orchids, it knocks me over - and it's still going strong after 2 weeks. I definitely love this one! I might have to go for the old fashioned Sharry Baby just so I have one too Never can have too many!!

P.S. - my grandmother (the root of my addiction to 'chids) has the "Sweet Fragrance" and it smelled great, too! Just FYI
