{"product_id":"cambria-orchid-burrageara-x-oncidium-nelly-isler","title":"Oncidopsis x ‘Pink Nelly Isler’ – Pink Cambria Orchid","description":"\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThese gorgeous hybrid orchids have a stunning pink-orange colour and mid-green leaves, standing out and providing a beautiful, unusual colour to your indoor landscape. These beautiful flowers are a traditional orchid shape, with a fan of narrow leaves above a wider leaf underneath, they have a sweet, citrusy scent and last for several weeks. Flowers can bloom any time of year, and can bloom multiple times a year, they will just need a bit of rest and some plant food in between. Their long leaves grow out of 'pseudobulbs', a water-storing organ in the orchid which sits just on top of the soil. The deep coral colour surrounds the centre, where a splash of yellow would entice pollinators in its natural habitat. Perfect as a gift for the flower-mad people in your life - or as a gift to yourself - to bring a splash of colour in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eScientific Name\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003ex \u003cem\u003eOncidopsis\u003c\/em\u003e ‘Nelly Isler’ (Hybrid between \u003cem\u003eOncidium\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eMiltoniopsis)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eSynonyms: x \u003cem\u003eBurrageara\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThis orchid is a hybrid between orchids from the Oncidium and Miltoniopsis genera.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eCommon Name(s)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eCambria Orchid, Nelly Isler Orchid\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eOrigin\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eThis Orchid was bred in cultivation, so doesn't have a native environment.

A north- or east-facing window is ideal. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves. If grown under artificial lights, provide 12–14 hours of light daily to support growth and flowering. Make sure the soil is also in the light, to prevent mould forming, and ensure it gets a little morning sunlight each day throughout its autumn and winter dormancy period.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eWater\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eWater thoroughly when top third of the soil has dried out. Avoid letting the roots sit in water, as this can lead to root rot.

Use a humidity tray or place near a humidifier if the air is dry. Regular misting can help, but be careful to avoid the flowers or it can cause spotting on them. Browning leaf-tips are a sign that humidity around the plant is too low.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eSoil\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003ePlant in a well-draining orchid or anthurium mix; one combining bark, perlite, and coir is ideal.
