Default Onc. "Carnival Costume"

I know it's a common Onc. but this orchid is a reliable bloomer for me!

It's throwing 3 other spikes too! What a sweetheart of a plant. Apparently, I'm good at re-blooming this one!

'Common' can still be most attractive. Congrats on a beautifully grown plant!

Really nice Tommy! Common is't a bad thing. It's common for a reason. ;D

I agree, the coloration is very pretty! Looks really happy too. If it blooms often like you mentioned, common or not you have reason to be proud! I would be

Is it really all that common? I've never seen this Oncidium before. I would grab it in a heartbeat. I'd probably grab it out of a shoppers basket when they weren't looking, if it was the last one.....not really.

Your Onc. is outstanding and I love it's name, so fitting!

Enjoy!

P.S. Did you happen to buy this on line and if so where? I'd love one of these.
