“Unforgettable” sea snake

I'm glad you like it.
Perfect excuse to look for and buy the original plant now!

Definitely mislabelled. Oncidium hybrids, unlike intergeneric hybrids of some other orchid alliances, don’t fall far from the tree.

I’ve grown sea snake for many years - from multiple sources - and never seen any that don’t match the typical published photos.

Mislabelling orchids is all too easy. These days I put two labels on every pot, both wired in place. But still I get the occasional noid.

I agree. That's a Cattleya alliance plant, probably Volcano Trick.

I watered for the first time in two weeks yesterday. Phals are spiking instantly but this one dropped 2 flowers overnight. What are we to do? Btw.. these Facebook ads need to stop moderators
