Oncidium P Juan Cardenas
A floriferous hybrid of Onc. Camilita Portilla × Onc. Cholita Cuencana, producing arching spikes densely set with medium-sized, velvety flowers. The broadly spreading sepals and petals have a gently undulate margin, while the wide trilobed lip features a fringed frontal lobe and a contrasting central callus with prominent orange filaments.
- Light: Bright indirect light with 40–60% shade cloth; avoid direct midday sun, which can stress the foliage and pseudobulbs.
- Temperature: 54–72°F (12–22°C); an intermediate to cool grower that benefits from a nighttime temperature drop to encourage spike initiation.
- Humidity: 60–80%; consistent moisture supports healthy pseudobulb development and prolific flowering.
- Watering: Water thoroughly and allow the medium to approach dryness between waterings; never allow roots to sit in standing water.
Additional Notes
Best grown in a medium bark mix with good drainage and airflow around the roots. Plants are shipped bare root, well established, and ready to adapt quickly to their new growing environment.
