Got a beautiful maturing Oncidium for just $15!

[cythaenopsis]

I couldn't believe it when I saw it... At Whole Foods market, they had a beautiful collection of non-phal orchids and at the insanely cheap price of just $14.99 (down in Princeton NJ area).

I didn't have much room in my car, and opted for just one over 3' long oncidium. In retrospect, I should have picked up a couple more and made room.







The larger of the 3 pseudo-bulbs is nearly 4" long. Really beautiful looking plant. It has over a dozen blooms going on right now. The pot is seriously too small... I will definitely have to replace it after this cycle. It's so top heavy, I had to add another wire to help keep the main spike more upright so the thing won't fall over. I better get a few stones for the base as well.
