Hahaha nooooo the Necco candy doesn’t smell/taste like BBQ at all. It’s sweet candy, but hard to describe the smell. This Phal smells like 70% Necco candy, 30% BBQ/Earthy. It’s complex and has been...

Beautiful novelty NOID Phal at grocery store!

Wowza! I don’t know what stunned me more, the sunset colors or the complex and mesmerizing speckling. Looks similar to Phal Sogo Lawrence (obviously will never know true ID). I can’t believe the...

Smile Phalaenopsis bellina thriving in semi-hydro

Thought I’d share this lovely bloom on my Phal bellina. I am besotted with her fragrance. I’ve probably walked by and sniffed her flower 10+ times each day :biggrin:

Thank you so much for your replies! It did not have the marks when I first got it. You know, I did have a plant nearby that had thrips so maybe they took a few bites out of this Oncidium?

Oncidium with rusty ring markings

Hi lovely orchid enthusiasts,

I need your help. Does this look like a virus? Or is it just lack of humidity doing a number on the older leaves?

This is Oncidium Aka Baby ‘Raspberry Chocolate.’...

Yeah I had to move them into semi-hydro because they are thirsty beasts! Canes would shrivel within a day or two otherwise.
