Oncidium newcomer

[TheAMP]

Hello orchid lovers. I've grown orchids as a hobby in Miami, albeit limited to simple dendrobiums.

I recently acquired a 25-yr old oncidium sphacelatum from someone who could no longer care for it. I was told that this plant had 75 spikes earlier this year. It has never been divided and took 4 people to lift and move it.

Naturally, I will be looking for help on how to divide this specimen. I'm thinking I will let it become acclimated to its new location until fall.

I have attached a photo of the specimen before we moved it.
