    Default Oncidium ornithorhyncum (Three Spikes)

    I've had this Oncidium ornithorhyncum for at least three years and this is the second blooming this year. Three spikes which are hard to capture in a photo. One spike has not bloomed yet. Love that Lavendar Soap scent. AL

    Lovely color ... though the scent would likely not do much for me (never have cared for the scent of lavender). Well done, Al. Personally, oncs and I tend to have "issues".
