Twinkle-type Oncidiums are very compact with tiny, very fragrant flowers. At adult size they create many delightful sprays of blooms. Oncidium Twinkle 'Oro' is the yellow clone of primary hybrid Oncidium Twinkle. It sports bright yellow flowers and has a tendency to put out 4 or more spikes at various times of the year. One of the easiest and most compact Oncidiums.

Plant pictured is a more mature version of the one you will receive. Unless stated, this plant may not arrive in bloom. 


CARE INFO:

Potting mix: Fine bark or long fiber sphagnum. Repot in Spring every 2 years.

Light: Bright indirect - medium light. Shielded South or West facing preferred for largest bloom display. North or East facing tolerated. Protect leaves from direct sun exposure. 

Water: Water frequently in hot months when media reaches dry. Do not allow to stay dry for long periods (bud blast, pseudobulbs shrivel, leaves crisp and "accordion"). Decrease in cold months.

Temp: Intermediate-cool (55F min night, 75F max day).

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

Fertilizing: Heavy feeding Spring-Fall. 1/4 strength urea-free fertilizer, every watering as new roots and leaves emerge. Flush the pot with water once monthly to remove mineral build up. Decrease to 1/4 or 1/8 strength every other watering or once monthly in Winter.
