The sky is pretty gloomy and dark here but at least Erika decided to quit early. Rain, rain, go away.

Many, if not most, of my oncids bloomed in my absence. This morning I was busy cutting all those dead stems off. New growth is coming though and I may have a chance to see what these plants look like in flower. A few are still hanging in there or are just getting started like the Oncidesa Gower Ramsey shown here.

In that same home made basket I have several smaller tolumnias. Here are two:
Tolumnia Tequila Sunrise

Oncidium Sharry Baby ‘Yellow Panda’

is also still blooming. This is a long term bloomer. My other Sharry Babies (Sweet fragrance etc) are in the shade house under all this rain. I don't even know their condition.
