Oncidium Speckled Spire 'Isis'
This is an award-winning strain I picked up for my birthday a few months ago. It grows 4 foot long spikes. It has a light vanilla floral hint in the morning.

That's a beauty! Four feet, wow that's a tall spike. I like how such a spike with these white flowers almost has this sort of sparkly appeal in the light. Nice pics & growing!

Flowers last close 5-6 weeks as well.

Never seen such as Onc, it's beautiful! Scented and lasts a long time; sounds like a perfect orchid. Sort of like Sharry Baby, but white instead.

Awesome! My Speckled Spire 'Whisp' is in spike at the moment, can't wait to see the blooms for the first time—thanks for the preview!

Thanks a lot. I picked it up just because it's very rare to see a white flower like this on these girl's.

I have really become a big fan of this plant. Mine was in bloom for two months! It seems to like cooler temps.

I have the cultivar snow flake in bloom right now with two spikes. I agree that you dont see a lot of white colored dancing ladies for some reason.. The snow flake cultivar has a little bit more brown blotches. Will post pics soon.
