Onc. Sharry Baby 'Sweet Fragrance' AM/AOS 3in (non-bloom)

Oncidium orchids, or "dancing ladies" create some of the largest and most delicate looking displays. Although these orchids are far from delicate in nature, they create eye-catching tall sprays of 1/2 inch flowers. This is an award winning cultivar of the well-known Onc. Sharry Baby, the famously chocolate-scented orchid. An excellent choice for orchid hobbyists looking to add something special to their collection.

These are young rooted starts that are 2 years or so from blooming size. Plant may vary from pictured. Unless stated, orchid will not be in bloom. 

ONCIDIUM CARE:

Potting mix: Fine bark or fine bark and long fiber sphagnum mix. Repot in Spring once root bound (1-2 years).

Light: Bright indirect - medium light. North or East facing preferred. Protect leaves from direct sun exposure.

Water: Water frequently in hot months when media is near dry. Do not allow to stay dry for long periods (pseudobulbs will shrivel, leaves will crisp and "accordion").

Temp: Intermediate-warm (55F min night, 90F max day).

Humidity: 30-60%, tolerant of low humidity.

Fertilizing: Heavy feeding Spring-Summer. 1/4 strength urea-free fertilizer, every watering as new roots and leaves emerge. Flush the pot once monthly to remove mineral build up. Decrease to monthly in Winter.
