Oncostele (Wilsonara) Tan Treasures
I bought this last year and this is its first bloom. The plant itself is kind of rough looking, probably because I can't keep it as cool as it would prefer, but the flowers are very nice. There are 8 of them, and they are about two inches. It gets so hot in Texas in the summer, I certainly can't grow Odontoglossum/Odontioda, and I haven't been very successful with Wilsonara either, but I do have a Rhynchostele (it's probably a primary hybrid) which has done well, so I thought maybe this Oncostele might work out better for me than the other previously-Wilsonaras I have tried, and it has.
