Oncidium cirrhosum alba

A rare alba form of this iconic species from the cloud forests of Ecuador, producing pendulous inflorescences with multiple large flowers open simultaneously. The long, narrow sepals and petals are strongly recurved with distinctive thread-like, curling tips — entirely free of pigmentation, with a pure yellow callus as the sole accent.

• 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 to initiate blooming.
• Humidity: 70–85%; 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 displayed in a hanging basket or elevated position to showcase its naturally pendulous inflorescences. Ships bare root, well established, and ready to acclimate to your growing conditions.
