    Default Onc. ornithorhynchum 'Marisa'

    First blooms on a young plant (I'm not responsible for the spikes). I can't wait until it grows up a little. Blossoms are more of a mauve color rather than the purple in the photos. Very slight sweet fragrance...

    That's a beautiful oncidium. I love the color.
    If I saw one of them, I would be sure to snatch it up!
