Orchid ID

10 years ago

Hi,

I bought this orchid about two weeks ago in bud and of course it came with no tag. I thought it was an oncidium or Wildcat.Now I'm thinking it's probably an odontoglossum.It's fragrant in the morning and so beautiful I can look at it for hours.lol Does anyone know what it really is? Thanks for your help.

Definitely an oncidium intergeneric (contains oncidium, among other genera). Unfortunately, thats about as close as you're going to get because too many hybrids look just like this.
