Oncidium Orchids are at the intermediate level. They have long, narrow branching stems smothered in fragrant flowers. You will need to be patient with your plants, it may take a season for them to settle in and bear blooms.

Oncidium Orchids grow best in pots or hanging baskets. Grow in a well ventilated area in filtered light. Choose a good quality Orchid potting mix to ensure perfect drainage. Keep them watered, you’ll know if they are thirsty if the bulbs wrinkle.

Originating in the tropics of South America, they require humidity, natural or man made to thrive, so ensure you keep your Oncidiums sheltered in cool climates.
