This is one of the very few oncidiums I keep around. It's a faithful bloomer for me with a decent spray of flowers. The plant always looks, horrible though. It seems to attract mites and never looks fully healthy. But, it always blooms and lives on so I appreciate it's efforts :p It's growing in s/h in high light in the g.h.

Here's a close-up. The spotting actually looks almost black in person.

Wow,t hat is a an impressive display. The colours are so clear and well defined on that one.

Beautiful!
 
The markings are quite interesting - I wonder how the pollenators would see it?
