I've now set up a new "Closed Group" on Facebook called "Roger's Orchids". If you watch my channel, you are welcome to apply for membership where you can post photos, ask questions and generally join in with orchid related things.
I am going to find and watch all your videos about oncidiums to watch and see how you could bring them to that fantastic mass blooming! I want mine do the same ; ) Thank you for nice morning boost, greetings from California!!!
Roger I hope you haven’t suffered another loss. You have certainly had more than your share this year!
Watching that first clip filmed in March the day after Elvis died brought back the memories - Mojo is fine.
My tiny's are just starting with spikes, not many but spikes none the less 😁
I had twinkles bloom in the middle of summer and in 30 C heat. I could forget to water them for much longer than expected from such a small orchid.
I had them in hydroponics. I loved them.
The I had to go to hospital for several months and most of my orchids died.
Today I bought several new ones. This time I want to take good care of them. My guess is - these will not be so forgiving. 😅
Mine objected to being taken off their mounts and being potted. They are all in a state of 'rescue' now.
@@GrowingOrchidswithRoger I am unable to grow anything on a mount 🤷🏼♀️
I'm speechless! Gorgeous plants! I'll be happy to pay the ticket for the twinkles show 😀
That Sotoanum just went to 11
Katrin Zoch isn't that distant, it is a primary hybrid of schroederianum and sotoanum whereas Twinkles are cheirophorum and sotoanum. I guess that would make them half siblings?
I'm twinkling also. Nice your back on the up, though I quite like the deep voice. Great video again.👍
Thanks.
That Sotoanum is exquisite! My twinkles are in bud too. 😍
Funny, I have an oncidium that 1/2 the leaf is yellowing, the other half is green. Crazy! Right in the center of the plant. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼it’s not an issue!
Thank you !!!
Glad to know you’re feeling better. Anxiously awaiting that Onc sotoanum blooming! Thanks for sharing.
nice twinkle, its will be beautiful when it blooms
Wow! Your twinkles are doing great!!
Happy to hear you...sounds like your cold is getting better.
Thanks.
Last week I bought an obvious oncidium. The tag on it said "Cambria". Looks like I got myself a twinkle 😂 delikate branching spikes with soft pink flowers from both sides of the pseudobulb. Flowers have bright yellow part above the lip... I think it's Twinkle CT Flamingo (have no idea what CT stands for)
Cambria is just used as a generic 'trade name' (it used to actually mean the plant had a set of specific orchids types in it's make up but that's been lost now with all the re-classification). Does sound like a Twinkle of some kind.
Roger I’m a big fan of your channel and love watching and listening while working, makes my day easier and I learn so much. I love the twinkles I saw a true lavender colored one once and can’t seem to locate it anywhere. Any suggestions?
I've not seen that colour.
@@GrowingOrchidswithRoger my mistake it was the Sotoanum
One of the parents of the Twinkles.
Glad you're feeling better! Love meeting the Twinkle family. So happy and healthy looking and such pretty blooms.
Thanks.
I always use a heater with a separate fan it warmd your orchid house evenly and heater doesn't have to work as hard
Enjoyed seeing your twinkles! I only have 3 in my collection to see how they will fare for me. Thanks for an interesting video.
You're welcome.
I love the Twinkles. Sadly i only have 1, the same mini you have. White with yellow, and The fragrance of vanilla. Mine is Also on a mount, wich it seems to like. And for the first time since i got it, it have more than 1 spike. 😊
Sounds good.
Great video Roger! Thanks for showing us all the twinkle types and for throwing in so many tips!
You're welcome.
Your Twinkles are beautiful ! Mine is in spike as well. Thank you for sharing & happy growing.
They are some of the easiest of the Oncidium types.
That Soto am might need a Pan Tech truck to feed it!🥰
😭. I’m so envious. I want one .. still looking.
I am finally catching up on your videos 😊❤️! Thank you for sharing your knowledge about orchids!
You're welcome.
I love twinkles, however all the ones I have had, have gone to twinkle heaven. I have. It mastered their care, so I gave up . Not sure if I would have better luck with mounting instead of potting . Big mama is stunning, can’t wait to see it in bloom. Thanks for sharing.
Many Oncidium types are 'lost' due to roots staying too wet when the plant's not in growth. Almost impossible to overwater a mount!
That one mount is wicked nice! Well Done Mate! Someone needs to breed sharry baby with a twinkle...…………...
WOW! What beautiful Twinkle, I have some sad news, can an orchid die in a matter of a couple of days? It looks healthy with a spike and two new strong growth at each side, l looked at it today the orchid new growth all soft, nothing to save on it, what’s happened? Your Sunday chat was very heart warming and l hope the sons and daughters who only remember their mum’s and dads on birthday and Christmas take notes
Bye
For an orchid to go down fast, it's normally a bacterial infection - there is no real cure as it takes hold fast. The only way to save the plant is if there are some parts that are not infected that can be cut off and grown on separately.

Hi Rodger
Thanks for the reply. That just my luck, l through thinks we’re going to will, I noticed another orchid today looking dodgy, all the roots were rotten, any advice? Besides the bin, I check out places to buy a horticultural light form,
Bye K
Are you saying that the orchid attached to the bark at the end of the film will rot because you sprayed it with too much water, but in the jungle, where its natural habitat is and it rained heavily, how do these plants survive in that moisture?
In the wild, an orchid will only survive if the place where it germinates is suitable. And, in the wild, the tree (bark) is living and doesn't rot.
I was so excited to see the title of this video as I've just ordered my first Twinkle (yellow). Thanks for a look at yours and for all the information.
You're welcome.
Very informative, loved it. 🌾
Found more mealy bugs today than ever before!
All those blooms!
Now that I'm reasonably good at keeping them watered and alive, I really appreciate Oncidium types (I always loved them the moment I saw those pseudobulbs lol) They really don't have the guess work most other orchids do...whether it's right before or right after the forming of the pseudobulb they spike right on time like a fine Swiss timepiece! (BTW- That's just a saying, If there is any "bad blood" between the UK and the Swiss I can assure you I know nothing of it!😅) I really, really hope I like the fragrance of mine😳
No problem - I think all accept that the Swiss make the best. I have one Twinkle that smells of Terry's Chocolate Orange.
@@GrowingOrchidswithRoger Oh WOW! I haven't had one of those oranges in a long time, must go find one now......(you can't find them everyday here, might be seasonal...) Please mention that when that one blooms!!
They seem to be around more leading up to Xmas.
Tiny beauty. 💚 They are awesome.
Thanks.
Do they spike when the weather gets cold like phals?
They produce their spikes as the new growths progress - can be anytime of year really.
Good Morning 🌞 First one checking in 😊
Lovely 💗 have a Bless day Xoxo
Imagine hybridizing Psygmorchis pusilla with Oncidiums
Started with one twinkle , it grew and grew never bloomed i divided it those divisions grew and grew nice and green never bloomed long story short i now have 6 oncidium twinkle that grow wild green with healthy bulbs and never bloom is it, light ,,fertilizer ??? before long i will have ten as they continue to outgrow the pots but never bloom, what type fertilizer do you use ? Thank you great channell
Strong healthy hybrids can sometimes be reluctant to bloom. You could try drmatically reducing their feed and/or switch to a low Nitrogen feed - and perhaps, a bit more light?
@@GrowingOrchidswithRoger Thanks for the reply actually trying more light now as Fall is here and the strong summer sun is no longer an issue.
Roger, do you change to bloom booster when they are in spike?
No - I do vary the feed for not for that reason.
Hi Roger. Will you mount the cousin on bark? Thank you
No - it's a bit big for a mount.
That last bit on the oncidium with media that stays wet long probably my downfall with mine. None have developed well even when repotted. Another "oh" and may do a Roger do, I do. Can't go wrong. With only 1 year under belt have tons to learn. You are sounding better too. Don't over do it.
When in growth, Oncidium types like to drink but there are times when the plant is not growing and should dry off quite quickly.
* have not mastered their care.
Oh my gosh! I've learned so much watching this! I think all my twinkles (2 or 3) are mini twinkles. I had no idea they came bigger! Could you please print/spell the name of the beautiful cousin Oncidium? Thanks! Ellen in Atlantic Beach
Oncidium Katrin Zock 'Mieke'
I must say, it is annoying when they go off with changing the names like that. :D was a bit puzzled at one point when I got old records with Onc. ornithorhyncum as parent, not sotoanum.
There's a story there. The original plant was discovered and described about 150 years ago. The drawing was in black and white and for many many years was assumed to be yellow (ornithorhyncum) . More recently, it was confirmed that original plant was in fact pink and a new name sotoanum was assigned.
