Oncidium cajamarcae
This distinctive species features elegant flowers with intricate markings on graceful arching inflorescences, thriving in cool to intermediate conditions and rewarding growers with reliable blooming when provided with bright light and consistent moisture.
- Light: Bright indirect to filtered light with 30-50% shade cloth. Tolerates some direct morning sun but protect from harsh afternoon rays.
- Temperature: Cool to intermediate grower. Daytime 65-75°F (18-24°C), nighttime 55-60°F (13-16°C). Benefits from a 10-15°F day-night differential to encourage blooming.
- Humidity: 50-70% humidity. Maintain with humidity trays or room humidifiers. Ensure excellent air circulation to prevent fungal issues on foliage and pseudobulbs.
- Watering: Water when potting medium approaches dryness, typically every 5-7 days. Maintain consistent moisture during active growth, reducing slightly during winter rest.
Additional Notes
Native to Peru (Cajamarca region) at 2,000-3,000 meters elevation. Best grown in medium bark mix with perlite or mounted on cork bark for optimal drainage.
