Oncidium Sharry Baby is a sympodial epiphyte orchid hybrid. It was registered in 1983 and created by Beall as a cross between Oncidium Jamie Sutton and Oncidium Honolulu The mouthwatering scent of vanilla and chocolate without the calories, makes this easy-to-grow orchid top the popularity charts. Another non-native on the list. But the smell will explain why we got tempted to keep it in stock. |
