General Oncidium care - moderate light, lightly moist media - tho I believe these can bloom in lower light as well

explain general oncidium culture. i have never grown oncidiums.

[WhiteRabbit]

Moderate light - some morning or afternoon sun, shade in afternoon if temps are very high. Less light than Vandas or Catts

Media should remain lightly moist

this is a tolumnia per OrchidWiz Express:

Tolu. Lambada is composed of species of which 68% take hot temperatures, 46% take warm temperatures and 25% take cool temperatures. Grow this hybrid in hot conditions, or 75°F to 85°F at night. It may be tolerant of cool (58°F to 66°F) and warm (66°F to 75°F) night temperatures.

High humidity. Water every day or every other day while in active growth. Commonly mounted in cork bark or grown in small (2") clay pots. Allow roots to dry quickly. Common media: lava rock, charcoal.

I don't believe Onc. Lambada 'Cutey' is a tolumnia.
