There's onc in this? Are the flowers bigger than the species? Nice looking plant

Oncidium or not, don't you just love it?!

[TwoStems]

It is lovely! I just bought the species. I can't wait for blooms. Does yours have the coconut fragrance?

This is not an oncidium but just Maxillaria tenuifolia, the coconut orchid, because of the smell. Nice colored one.

I agree with Yew...Good luck re-blooming it...if you want flowers be sure to give it heat, moisture & LOTS of high light! Betty

lovely species - given Betty's advice, it is a reliable bloomer.

Very pretty coloring, and I'd be willing to bet it smells like coconut pie. We have one and it's delightful. I don't think I've ever heard of an orchid that is both an oncidium and a maxillaria, but then, I sure as heck don't know everything about orchids.
