Default

As ES stated, there is a growth point inside each bract (= leaf). It can produce either an inflorescence, or a new growth. If from the top of the pseudobulb, it is often weaker than the inflorescences emerging from the base of the PB.

Young plants usually produce only a single inflorescence and a single growth. Mature plants can do 2-3 inflorescences and two new growths.

In Germany I once saw a large group of various Oncids, and virtually all plants had either 3 or 4 inflorescences. I have never seen this so consistently on plants blooming for the 2nd time, but not really mature size yet. I suspect that they have been given some kind of 'chemical help'.
