Macro Monday
It's Macro Monday again, and I haven't posted any Orchids for a while. This tiny flower is an Oncidium orchid. It has stems about 8" long and is filled with little flowers that are only 1/2" or less across. This one is white and yellow with a red center, but they can come in all colors, and there are about 500 species make up this genus. This particular one has the fragrance of baby powder..

So tiny and delicate. I'll have to tell my mom about these. She loves orchids.
They are so beautiful Becky. I wish I still had my hothouse full of them.

I like tiny flowers and the aroma of baby powder - if only I had a place to grow these!

Very small but very pretty! I love all your orchids.
Beautiful Becky! And I LOVE your header shot!!
I would love to have a flower that smelled like fresh baby powder. Yours is very pretty.

I really like orchids, especially since I discovered that I can keep them alive, unlike most houseplants! I guess they thrive on neglect.
That's a pretty little flower. So far I've only had phalaenopsis, but I'm tempted to branch out!
