Oncidium Super Tiger

A striking cross between Onc. Lucy Roessiger and Onc. Tiger Straw, this hybrid inherits the bold, heavily marked petals of its Tiger Straw parent combined with the generous branching spray habit of Lucy Roessiger. Flowers display rich chestnut-brown barring and spotting over a warm yellow base, with a broad, ruffled lip that adds a dramatic focal point to each bloom.

• Light: Thrives under 50–60% shade cloth. Avoid direct midday sun, which can scorch leaves; bright, filtered morning light is ideal to encourage blooming.
• Temperature: 60–80°F (15–27°C); Intermediate to Warm grower. Tolerates brief dips to 55°F (13°C) at night, which can help trigger flowering.
• Humidity: 50–70%. Maintain consistent humidity with good air movement to prevent fungal and bacterial rot. A fan running on low is beneficial in enclosed spaces.
• Watering: Water thoroughly, then allow the medium to approach dryness before watering again. Oncidiums prefer a slight dry-down between cycles; reduce frequency during cooler or overcast periods.

Additional Notes

Grown by Ecuagenera in the highlands of Ecuador, this hybrid is well-suited for intermediate to warm growers seeking a free-flowering, spray-type Oncidium. Plants are shipped bare root and well-established.
