Oncidium Orchids
simply-thai.com - thai market - Oncidium Orchid Image Pages - Oncidium Yellow - Commonly known as dancing ladies, the broad flat lip of Oncidiums does indeed give the illusion of a ruffled lady's skirt. There are several different sections to the Oncidium family as well as numerous closely-related families which can be used to create Oncidiums. Intergenitics such as Colmanara, Miltassia, Burregeara and Aliceara . This means that the Oncidium Alliance has something for everyone regardless of your taste or growing conditions. These are orchids from the tropical Americas, Caribbean, Bahamas, Hispaniola and even South Florida. They grow at both sea level and in mountainous regions and everywhere in between. Plants can be large or small and produce large or small flowers with most falling somewhere in between. Most members of the Oncidium Alliance are spray-type orchids so even species with small flowers can put on a spectacular display. Although most species bloom only once each year many hybrids bloom three or more times. The group of small fan-leaved Oncidiums know as equitants generally make side branches and continue flowering off the main flower spike providing many weeks of continuous bloom. Colour range can be varied but is most commonly yellow or pink. What makes these orchids unique is the exotic markings and patterns that decorate many of the flowers. Some are sweetly fragrant and at least one recent hybrid has achieved some fame from its fragrance alone.
