Oncidium Sweet Sugar
I just bought myself this Christmas present. I had never before seen such a big oncidium. It has 4 spikes, all of them branching. Hopefully all the buds open. Must be quite a sight.

Many more flowers have opened now, but there are still a lot to open.

I have been wanting one of these ever since I read about it on a list of the longest blooming orchids, on Orchid Board. I used to have Gower Ramsey and I loved it, but it didn't last very long.

Almost all of the blooms open now. Don't know why but I think the pseudobulbs are shrinking. It has enough water though. I use a skewer to see when it needs water.
