Oncidium nanum in bloom with 3 spikes - Orchid Board

I love this little plant. A few weeks ago, I was worried that it wasn't doing well, so I moved it a little higher up in the greenhouse. I noticed the very next day that it had 3 spikes! Shows what I know...
Well, now it has bloomed and though the flowers are small, there are plenty of them and they have the sweetest scent!

Sorry ladies

...I've fixed it now!

HI Laura, is that really an oncidium??? Really looks like a phrag or paph to me.

Thanks Susanne, thought I was losing it....everytime you think you have something figured out....you're wrong with these orchids....this though, I thought must be wrong.!

What a lovely bloom! Do you have a picutre from the entire plant? How large/small is it. Does it need intermediate or warm temps? (Yes I'm drooling over these flowers hah!)

Wow really cute, whatever it is.
