Description

Oncidium Sharry Baby is one of the most popular orchids ever, and it’s easy to see (or smell) why: its blooms smell like chocolate! This orchid is perfect for folks who need a chocolate fix, but don't want the calories. Research has suggested that eating chocolate stimulates a hormonal reaction in the body that makes you feel like you're in love. What better way to get that lovin' feeling than getting a whiff of this lovely orchid’s blooms. Just don't eat it, OK? Oncidium Sharry Baby will produce a lovely spray of dark maroon flowers that can last a month or more in bloom. On a larger plant with multiple mature bulbs, it can easily bloom three times per year.
