Greetings. Been in La Fortuna. found some such as the epi and an Oncidium that I can't quite get a good ID on. If anyone can help, it will be appreciated. The Onc. spike is more than 6' long.

Hi Maitaman, don't know what #1 is but the Onc looks like a Sharry Baby IMHO. I'm sure others will chime in

the pictures are really too small to see clearly, but #2 is definately not sharry baby. sharry baby doesn't get that big, and is generally not found growing wild in panama.

The first picture is Epidendrum lacustre.

Hope that helps, Eric

Thanks - Sharry Baby is a hybrid. I have some others that need ID. I´ve got pics of more than 500 species and some are not supposed to be found in Panama´. When I´m on my own comp i´ll add some pics. I have an Otoglossum chiriguense that´s nothing short of fantastic. I spotted it from more than 30 meters distance.
