Default Oncidium crispum? Again, with photos.

This is blooming now (February) here in the state of Sao Paulo of Brazil, at the same time my oncidium reflexum and miltonians and miltonopsis. I think it's a species, not a hybrid. It has put out as many as five blooming stalks, but this year only one. I need to find out what it is, and what it wants before it goes into Pout.

The pseudobulbs are sort of egg-shaped, and marroon, while the pair of leaves at the top are green. The flowering stalks come out of a leaf-like thing on the side of the pseudobulb.

It's mounted on the inclined trunk of a aroeira tree - loose bark. There is quite an accumulation of older roots between it and the tree. I tried cleaning out the dried pseudobulbs and reattaching them closer to the trunk two years ago, and that's when it started giving me fewer flower stalks.

I give it weak fertilizer - foliar - most weeks in the summertime.

Vjbrown, your plant is a species and its name is Oncidium enderianum.
