Yes I think like a strawberry but whit successive plants.... I mean strawberry has a mother plant with this kind of lines.... this oncidium has a mother plant and a child and after that this child is a mother plant and so it goes to form the vine.... but each plant has only one child.... is amazing!!!! And the flowers are beautifulll.... imagine a big plant with tousands of little plants with flowers????.... Something I want to discover with my plant: does an old plant blooms again???? or only the new ones have flowers....??? I ´ll tell you the next year....!!!! |

I divide my oncidium in three plants ( I can divide it in 30 plants): two with sustrat and spagnum (1,2) and one with only spagnum (3).... one with a wire to grow (2) , the other two without wire... Maybe one or all the plants will grow good... I hope!!!!

I bought a sprog from Burnham for a fiver and six months later I have a vine with 12 new plants and one flower, grown around a hoop of wire stuck in the pot, an amazing novelty in the Orchid world.
By the way I think it is now Otoglossum globuliferum.
There is a photo in my album, but I cant figure out how to get it here!

Otoglossum globuliferum
I bought a small plant with two pseudobulbs from Burnham 8 months ago. It had what looked like a new spike which to my surprise grew and grew such that I had to put a wire hoop in the pot and train it around.
After completing almost two turns it stopped extending and I noticed a number of nodes along the runner.
On returning from a visit to my French family I was amazed to find each node had grown into a new plantlet,with roots, 12 in all, just like keikis. A month later one of these plantlets produced a spike with a single flower.
What an extraordinary growth pattern! I though I had a miniature but have since read that this species can grow to a mat 5 meters across...
