Oncidium toachicum
 
I have been a horrible "orchid dad" lately; health issues kept me out of the greenhouse, so I had to rely on automated watering, meaning 1) poor distribution, and 2) NO nutrients whatsoever.

To my delight, having finally gone out there, I found several paphs in spike, so they should be coming around soon, and this little gem:

Wow. Great Onc. and great photo too. Something tells me that even when you think that you're neglecting your orchids badly, that they still receive better treatment than most of ours do when we're on our game.

Clearly, this one's no worse for the wear.

Thanks for sharing.

Very pretty oncidium. I'm sorry to hear about your health problems, Ray. I hope your problems are resolved quickly and that 2012 is a happy and healthy year for you. I always look forward to reading your words of wisdom on this forum. Good luck.

That is a yummy flower...reminds me of caramel with nuts...(maybe I am just hungry)...
I will have that on my wish list...
I hope you feel better, Ray.
I wish you health and happiness for the coming year.
You have been a great help to me when I was a newbie on that other forum I used to be active in...and you taught me a lot about S/H
You will continue to be of great help to others in the coming years...you are essencial to orchid growers.
