Hi E.J.😌🙌I did have an oncidium twinkle. It had grea' leaves in the cooler winter temperatures 10/20℃. I had an oscillating fan going on and off through the day. The oncidium suffered with high temperatures when I took it outdoors and it died at 35℃ last summer in the shade. It really needs cool indirect light and just moist medium😌🙏💖I enjoyed watching🥰👏
Thank you for sharing your knowledge on them! I do have make some good changes I know. Good light, not too much. Not to warm and air movement and moist. So have that! But I think I do have them a bit to wet in these pots. I will try them in net pots, in Semi Hydro. SO that they have more air around the roots. Maybe that helps? … we will see! :D Thanks!
Hi EJ, they are adorable. I used to grow them and a few other oncidium types but the leaf tip die back drove me nuts!!! I truly think that it is something that the plant just does for some unknown reason. I see lots of orchid growers in Florida have them in tress and there are those yellow leaf tips. I hope you can solve this mystery and maybe I will try them again if you do!😊🥰😍
LOL.. I will try my best! Bud I do understand why you do not grow them anymore. It's not fun if they keep look so bad. And I also do see this problem with other growers and there Twinkles. But, maybe one day I will find the answer to this problem! :D
They are so beautiful!
Thank you!
Love the twinkles!
Me too! :D
Lovely blooms.
Thank you!

@TheOrchidSaGa OK, I think you changed my mind! I'm going to treat myself to one as a mother's day 🎁. Thank you for the pep talk. ❤️
They’re beautiful, EJ! Do you use self watering pots for them too?❤🤗👍🪴
Thanks and yes I do!
I have rot with my twinkles..but i can grow the Sotoanum no issues
My sotoanum does look much better too. I hope one day I will find out how to grow the Twinkles better!
Little stinkers 😁I had them but I won't get them again I really don't like the smell (same with Sotoanum)
So strange, because they smell so great! LOL... :P just like the Nelly's!
@@TheOrchidSaGa Smelly Nelly 😁
