Oncidium Hybrid Yellow 40cm 2-Spike

This yellow Oncidium orchid is pure sunshine in a pot. Imported directly from Amsterdam, it carries two branching spikes covered in clusters of bright golden-yellow blooms, each one splashed with chocolate-brown tiger markings at the centre. Known as the dancing lady orchid, every flower looks like a tiny figure in a ruffled golden skirt, caught mid-twirl. It is joyful, warm, and impossible not to smile at.

This is the original dancing lady in all her glory. The cheerful yellow petals fan outward in that classic Oncidium shape, while the rich brown markings add depth and character that sets this apart from any ordinary yellow flower. When both spikes are in bloom, the effect is like a shower of tiny golden butterflies floating above the foliage.

What You Will Receive

Your Oncidium orchid arrives as a healthy, flowering plant standing approximately 40cm tall with two flowering spikes. It is presented in a 12cm nursery pot, elegantly gift-wrapped in our signature charcoal-grey paper with blush-pink trim, ready to give the moment it arrives. The branching spikes carry multiple open blooms alongside buds that will continue to open over the coming weeks, extending the display for up to eight weeks with the right care.

This is a limited edition import from Amsterdam. Once this consignment sells out, it will not be restocked until the next seasonal shipment from Holland.

Why This Yellow Oncidium Makes the Perfect Gift

Yellow flowers carry a message of friendship, happiness, and new beginnings, and this dancing lady orchid delivers that feeling with real personality. It is a thoughtful choice for birthdays, congratulations, thank-you gifts, get-well wishes, or simply to brighten someone's week without needing an occasion.

Unlike a cut bouquet that fades in a few days, this living plant will bloom for weeks and, with proper care, can rebloom in future seasons. The compact 40cm size makes it ideal for a desk, kitchen windowsill, or bedside table.

Pair with a premium greeting card for a personal touch, or add a box of Belgian chocolates for the complete gift experience.

FAQ

How do I care for a yellow Oncidium orchid?

Oncidium orchids prefer bright, indirect light and moderate watering. Allow the top layer of the growing medium to dry out between waterings. They enjoy slightly cooler temperatures than Phalaenopsis orchids and appreciate good air circulation. Avoid placing them in direct afternoon sun, which can scorch the leaves.

How long will the Oncidium orchid flowers last?

With proper care, the blooms on your Oncidium orchid can last six to eight weeks. Buds that have not yet opened will continue to bloom over this period, extending the display. After flowering, the plant enters a rest period before producing new spikes.

Can I order this orchid for same-day delivery?

Yes, same-day delivery is available throughout Cape Town. Place your order before 12pm to qualify for same-day delivery. Orders placed after 12pm will be delivered the following business day.

Is this Oncidium orchid available for delivery outside Cape Town?

This limited edition Amsterdam import is only available for delivery within Cape Town. Due to the delicate nature of the plant and the care required during transport, we do not ship orchids to other cities.
