A first time bloom for my baby! I got the 2.5" pot this spring, repotted to a 3", it has 2 bulbs & 2 new starts. The actual color is more purple, sooner or later I'll get it right with the new camera!

Stunning! I love the Odontonias made with Miltoniopsis rather then the true Miltonias.

Very nice, Rose
You must treat it well for it to bloom on such a young plant.
I love the oncid. alliance plants but the problem with them is they grow so fast and so quickly they are large plants. I find it difficult to divide them, I like to see the big plants in bloom, and I allow them to become monsters.

Thanks all! It's really a toss up for me as to how the oncid. alliance will do, I either got it right, or got lucky ...... maybe some of both! I was really surprised to see it spike this soon. It's on the bottom shelf in the GH, it has an eastern exposure, so it's in shade from noon on. I have it in a well draining bark mix, dries between waterings & has good air circulation. I took the pics of the one single flower & snipped it off! It can only get better so let it put it's energy into growing seeing it is a small plant (about 10" tall). I hope as it matures it continues to like what I'm doing!
