More shots of onychoides.
Dawn, I have read a couple of times that onychoides and its close relatives like to grow up into full sun, so i give mine bright light. It sits in a south facing window, so is bright all the time but gets more direct sun in the winter. This may help the plant think it is in its native haunt (in the southern hemisphere), as it and a lot of other New Guinean/Australian species bloom here in the fall, as Australia is entering its spring.
