| Bloom finally opening
Hi all, My oncidium has beenpreparing to bloom for weeks now and today it finally decided to open up. Still has a bit more opening up to do but im so excited that i decided to share it a bit early. Does anyone know the name of this onc. I also moved it from the spot i had it outside, that side of the house is shaded this time of year and so it got bright light but no direct sun. It is now on my didning table where it is about 4 feet from a south facing window. i have placed it ontop of a bowl of water so it gets humidity. if there is anything else i need to do to prolong the blooms please let me know.   |

It looks very much like Degarmoara Winter Wonderland.

Although it can't be specifically ID'd, I would second the guess of Winter Wonderland.

I don't think you can make an id on the plant at this point since it's not open fully or at any time. There are just so many hybrids out there unless there it came with a tag, you will never know for sure. But it looks like it will be beautiful.

Synda is right...an ID isn't going to be possible from the flower pic alone. Whatever it is...it sure looks like it's going to be a beauty! Congrats!!

It really is beautyful. Ive been watching it as it unfolds and i am amazed each moment. i am new to the world of orchids so i may be a litte over stimulated i guess  . I am an artist by profession (i paint) and so the beauty of it all has definately captivated me. here are some updated pics.

So I found the catalog for orchid sale where I bout my Onc. Turns out it is a Winter Wonderland "white fairy". So that's the good news. The bad news is my blooms all started fading at the same time and fast, thought it was natural aging until I saw them, little green critters on the back of the flowers. Looks like aphids. Sprayed them with soapy, veg oil water and sees to have killed them. Was a beaut while they lasted. Thanks for the great guesses on the name, appreciate it!!!!
