Onc. Heaven scent ready to bloom


     Just want to quickly update the status of Oncidium HSR. The two spikes have matured quickly and are ready to start pushing out buds. I have staked them but they seem to curve to the light no matter what.


     The pseudobulb is finally showing itself and seems to be getting a bit plumper as time passes. I'm assuming the somewhat direct light from the new window it is sitting in is making this onc. very happy.

Onc. heaven scent 'redolence' in spike

     Welcome to Rutgers U :)

     Haven't been able to post this update because Im so busy with school. Onc. HSR has put out two bloom spikes about 3 weeks ago and they are still growing strong. Lots and lots of new roots are growing, which is great because the old ones were rather dead to begin with.

     Wonder how many blooms these spikes will produce...

     Please excuse the darkness of the photos. Apartment living on campus proves to have little lighting!
