ONCIDIUM 
Related to the odontoglossums, the oncidiwn reguire mich the same care and 
treatment. All are lateral bloomers, the spike or spray coming from the base of 
the pseudobulb as with the odontoglot. They are the most variable of our orchids 
as to elevation and range of temperature as they grow from the mountains to the 
coastal plain. None will cause too much trouble to the hobbyist as they are very 
adaptable. Many are very fragrant. We shall carry a species classification group 
‘in which we shall carry all those umamed and uncertain types, such as the burro 
ear type that is only identifiable when blooming. From this many good: plants might 
be received. | 3 ‘
