Default Oncidium ornithorhynchum

I just inherited this plant! A lady who knew I was into orchids had this poor plant that was neglected. It is quite large but has terrible accordian wrinkle. Hopefully the new growths will be OK. However, it does have a spike open and two more coming.

Such a pretty one! Its so light and airy... I have a small one that I bought as a seedling, it now has 4 pseudobulbs, and I'm hoping that I will see flowers sometime soon!

Congrats on the bloom! I'm sure it is going to be very happy in its new home with you.

I will grow it with the rest of my Oncidum alliance. And yes Dorothy, it is highly scented.
