Newbie's Onc. 'Twinkle'
3 Attachment(s)
This little one is probably the "fanciest" in my collection, and one of only two that are tagged. So I'm rather proud of her! I got it from Whole Foods a few months ago.
She's finally spiked and bloomed- wasn't in spike when I purchased. I see Twinkles are rather common here, but thought I'd share anyways, I think this one's doing rather well! Here are some other pictures in addition to the ones I've attached: http://i154.photobucket.com/albums/s...sandjan265.jpg http://i154.photobucket.com/albums/s...sandjan252.jpg She came with this infection which I dabbed with Hydrogen Peroxide and caked with Cinnamon. The bulb has wrinkled, but I don't think it has continued. Two of the current spikes are out of that bulb, as soon as they're done I'm cutting it off. http://i154.photobucket.com/albums/s...sandjan248.jpg eta: See issue in post #4 please! |
nice!
what type of infection does it have? |
She is very pretty. I like the sharp contrast between the white and the yellow. A nice one.

After asking around, we think it's bacterial. packing with cinnamon seemed to slow it, even though that's an antifungal.
I'm removing that bulb when it's done blooming anyways, so that isn't a problem anymore. What I AM worried about are tiny black/brown spots scattered on the tips of the leaves and moving down. There were a few when I bought it, but I think they are multiplying. I was told they were just something that happened to Onc. and to not worry about it...but being a beginner.... :/ |
