Odontocidium Sunlight NN in spike
I got this one in bloom last spring with about 8 flowers.
It is such a slow grower. The flowers faded by early May. New growth didn't start until late summer (I wonder if it was the heat that this plant didn't like with odontoglossum in its background), and grew during the fall. It matured larger than the previous pb and I was excited about that!
Then I waited and waited for a spike to show up. Mid December, I noticed small black thing between a leaf and pb. I thought it was a dead spike.
I waited a little longer and the black thing grew above the pb shoulder!
It is truly interesting!
I see about eight buds on the spike and two little branching going on.
This plant produce flowers that are scented with wonderful fragrance. can't wait!!!!
Flowers are heavily spotted bronze/dark orange brown with bright yellow lip.
