Oncidium cirrhosum spotted
 
Im thinking about buying a Oncidium cirrhosum spotted. But I can't find detailed information about its care requirements. I need to know if my conditions will suit its needs.

Ooo! That's a pretty one!
According to IOSPE IOSPE PHOTOS it is cold to cool growing in wet montane cloud forests. Sorry I can't be of more help, but hopefully some other members can be!

Welcome to the Orchid Board!

Not many people can provide cool to cold temperatures, and very high humidity, throughout the year. Where do you live? Where will you place the plant to grow it?

I grow in a house in NE USA so I'm intermediate - onc., paph, Phalaenopsis etc. so sadly I can't grow that plant. *cry*. Oh well. Are there any hybrids that are similar?

If you go to IOSPE you will see all its relatives in section Erectolobata are cold to cool growers. There are some white-flowered intergeneric Oncidiums somewhat resembling Onc. cirrhosum. They do better in intermediate conditions. Look up Beallara Tahoka Glacier.
