I love these! Now let's see how fast I can kill them.

Culture advice is welcomed.

 

[Marco]

Nice! I love the shooting star!

 

[blueovalgal]

I like them, too! The only Onc. I've been able to bloom is Sharry Baby. My other brassia hybrids just grow... I'll be looking forward to reading what others have to suggest to you... Barb

From what I have read, they will grow really well in medium light. But to get them to bloom, they need high light 2000-3000 footcandles.

That's perfect fc range for most multi-floral paph! oke: :wink:

I love the Oncidium intergenerics!

I once made a cross of Brapasia Serene and Odontonia Lake Harbur. I ended up that it was a new genera of orchids. I named it Derosarra Devine. This was after my mentor, Victor DeRosa.

Greenpaph,

Can you suggest some of the great OI's that I might look up? I have a couple more on my want list right now like Charles M Fitch and Royal Robe. What do you like, and post some photos if you have the time!

 

[Park Bear]

I have a few OI's, but they can get big fast. Your's are very pretty

 

[Gideon]

Very nice, I love these

 

[PHRAG]

Can anyone tell me how to divide these? The ones I have now fit easily into 4 inch pots, but once they outgrow these, I will probably divide them if I can so I keep them small. Maybe I could just trim off older psuedobulbs every two years or so?

 

[L I Jane]

Well, I have 3 of the ones posted .Also I'll be dividing my shooting star mustard (Pic posted recently) if anyone is interested.

 

[PHRAG]

Heather is going to kill me for not buying a Roth instead, but these are so easy to bloom I just can't pass them up.

My Melissa Brianne just started sending up another spike and two new bulbs. Maybe I should have listened when people said they get big!

Damn right I am! What's the matter with you?? oke:
Geesh, next it will be Miltonias!

 

[PHRAG]

I think you have been traumatized by a non-slipper orchid in the past. It's ok, you can tell us. We're your friends.

Heather, if you aren't careful you are going to become that strange lady who has been at every orchid society meeting I have ever been to. You know the type, who look at the show-n-tell table and make faces at the phals. "Hrrrrmph, phals are for beginners."

:rollhappy:

 

[Heather]

I just skip the Phals.....


(no I don't, I actually like Phals (at least *species* Phals) but I do skip over most of the intergenerics on our show tables, I will admit. I have not started making faces at them yet, however. I will have to work on that....)
