    Default Odontobrassia noid

    Hi guys,

    Another recent purchase. I am yet to ID it though - it's quite close (but doesn't quite match) 'Kenneth Bivens' or 'Bob Henley'... actually it has characteristics of both. Any ideas would be great, thanks.

    Your pictures are very good, I like the spots up close the best. I don't do well with the oncidiums with our heat, but I absolutely love them. Your's is one of the nicest with dark color i've seen in awhile...very nice!

    Thanks for the likes and comments.

    Connie, that's a shame the heat in Florida scuppers your Onidiums. But I can't grow (and haven't even attempted) Vandas in my north facing apartment - It's a case of right plant right place I guess. I also might do better in your climate at the moment - I'm looking out of the window at horizontal rain!
