Oncidioda Jimbo 'Swarm' 4in

Oncidioda is an Oncidium hybrid crossed with Cochlioda. This variety is forgiving and produces larger flowers than expected from a typical Oncidium. Branched, tall spikes of yellow bordered orange flowers make this fantastic for display. A good beginner orchid.

Plant may vary from pictured. May not be in bloom. 

ONCIDIUM CARE INFO:

Potting mix: Fine bark or bark/long fiber sphagnum mix. Repot in Spring.

Light: Bright indirect - medium light. Shielded South or Wast facing preferred. Bright North/East tolerated. 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, 85F max day).

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

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