How do I cut stem of Oncidium Incurvum after flowering?
Smile How do I cut stem of Oncidium Incurvum after flowering?

Hello, A few months ago I bought a lovely orchid which I now know to be an Oncidium Incurvum. It has one long stem with four arms/stems coming off the main stem, these and the top of main stem produced beautiful flowers for about 7-8 weeks. The last flowers dropped off about 4 weeks ago. Please could you advise me whether to encourage re-flowering I should cut each of the 4 shorter stems back or do I cut the large longer main stem back? There were about 10 flowers at top of main stem and each branch below had about 4-5 flowers. It is almost 60cm tall at present. I've only ever had moth orchids before and have cut them back with successful re-flowering but Im not sure what to do with this new one.

Many thanks, Stephanie

Maybe I should add that I live in Glasgow, Scotland and bought the plant already in flower from a florists in about March this year, so it has flowered through our spring, and its now the start of summer here.
