Question
I have oncidium wildcat "yellow butterfly".  It has sent up 3 new bloom stalks between 2 to to 3 feet in length.  These stalks have been growing for 2 to 4 weeks and have yet to produce a bloom.  Am I impatient? Or could there be a problem (lack of fertilizer, not enough water or sun)?

Thanks.

Answer
You are impatient. The next event should be a branching of the bloom spikes.  After that, the branches should begin to bud.  If all continues to go well you should have a spectacular flowering. The name of the plant is properly Odontocidium Wildcat.  I would encourage you to stake the bloom spikes if you haven't alread done so.  This will provide a much better flower orientation as buds and flowers begin to develop.
