    Default Vuyl Cambria "Plush"

    Bought this as an iddy biddy seedling in April.
    So quite surprised it,s bloomed so quick.The top of the spike
    broke off during some heavy winds(heavy for the UK) so
    only 3 flowers.

    Hi, lately I've been attracted to this beauty, but living in the tropics, I'm not sure if this plant can survive well and bloom here.
    Can anyone tell me more about Vuly Cambrias please?

    Marcus, unless you're planning on keeping it in a cool, air-conditioned environment, I's reconsider.

    Little tid-bit of info: This hybrid was first introduced in 1931 in England, but when 'Plush' was awarded in 1972, it became so popular, that the Brits started referring to all such oncidium intergeneric hybrids (especially involving miltoniopsis) as "cambrias" - something that persists today.
