Colmanara Masai 'Red' | CRUEL CONDITIONS | Here is how I do it! #CareCollab

#ColmanaraMasaiRed #Rhynchostelebictoniensis #Oncidium cariniferum
A BEAST WITHIN THE #ONCIDIUM alliance! My goodness, this orchid is the one that stopped me from getting the Sharry Baby, for fear of not having any space in Summer or Winter. It is so big, and so vigorous, but so beautiful at the same time, I would not want to be without it! It has to endure conditions that it would prefer not to have to deal with, but, despite all the trials I put this #orchid through, it blooms faithfully for me every year! I bought this #orchid as a memory of my life in Kenya. As an homage to the magnificent tribe, the #Masai! This orchid is appropriately named!
