    Default Bakerara Truth 'Silver Chalice'

    Here is another beautiful oncidium that is currently blooming in the RVO greenhouse. It is a bakerara or Bak.

    That is beautiful. I really like it. Too bad it doesn't grow well in hot weather like Houston

    Why not? It grows well here in Arkansas. We get very hot here -100+ degrees for most of August. This one grows on the center bench right along side of some mini-catts and Brassidiums. The 4 way cross makes it more heat tolorant than a Miltonia. BAK = Brassia x Miltonia x Odontoglossum x Oncidium. Give it a try!
