About a week into her first bloom, purchased in the fall and began spiking some time in November (IIR). Finally starting to have a detectable fragrance, it smells like vanilla with some light powdery notes.

I purchased this from Hausermann, it was just labeled Oncidium Twinkle Fantasy so I don’t have any more specific info on the species/subspecies, but she’s cute.

This plant is under grow lights for at least 12 hours and so far has been tolerant of high light. It’s on a heat mat (that barely works) but the temps in this area of my apartment have been pretty low (55-65), and it seems to be tolerating the low temps well (shockingly, my Bellinas also seem to be pretty happy and growing in these temps). #Oncidium #OncidiumOrchid #OncidiumTwinkle #OrchidLovers
