Oncidium seasonal highlights — a year in review

I've been growing Oncidium for a full year now and want to capture what each season offered. repotting best done just after flowering finishes was the clear high point — everything you're told about Oncidium at that time of year is true. But the plant has something to offer in every season, which I hadn't expected.

pseudobulbs that store water and nutrients is consistent throughout the year, which is one of its real strengths. I've settled on a conservatory shelf with filtered light as the ideal position. feeding with a half-strength orchid fertiliser weekly in summer was the lesson I took into next year. crown rot from water sitting in the leaf crown is the only thing that interrupted the enjoyment. Otherwise: excellent.
