Onc Twinkle budding out
I'm excited to see this in bloom. I got this from Kalapana Tropicals at the Huntington Gardens AOS meeting/show in October 2016. The label says Oncidium Twinkles 'Red', but I log it as Onc. Twinkle (no 's'). Twelve inflorescences, each with about 50 buds. I'll update this when it's fully blossomed.
Added photo 4 weeks later. Not all buds opened, maybe too dry in the house. Still happy with it though.

Oncidium Twinkle comes in three varieties: red/purple (Red Fantasy), yellow (Yellow Fantasy) and white (Fragrance Fantasy).
I have one red but it gave me only three spikes. Last blooming, right after I got it, it spiked only one so I must be going in the right direction.
Do your Twinkle get any sun? The leaves are pale green and this might be the trick for so many spikes.

Looking good. I can't wait. I have the light pink one then it turns almost white. It's blooming as we speak.
