Oncidium cruentoides
A floriferous species from the cloud forests of Ecuador, producing arching, branched inflorescences densely set with numerous small flowers. The short, rounded sepals and petals are neatly spread, with a small, pale lip that provides a delicate contrast to the overall spray.
- Light: Bright indirect light with 50–60% shade cloth; avoid direct sun, which can scorch the broad foliage.
- Temperature: 46–68°F (8–20°C); a cool grower that thrives with distinct day-to-night temperature differentials.
- Humidity: 65–85%; good air circulation is essential to keep the foliage healthy at cooler temperatures.
- Watering: Water thoroughly and allow the mix to approach dryness between waterings; reduce frequency during cooler months.
Additional Notes
Best grown in a medium bark mix with excellent drainage. Ships bare root, well established, and ready to acclimate to your growing conditions.
