Unidentified Oncidium

[June Bud]

I'm new to this forum and this is my first post, so "HI EVERYBODY!"
I bought this oncidium several years ago at Home Depot with no flowers or spikes. It bloomed after two years and is now in it's second bloom with two spikes. I want to identify and tag it. I'd be most appreciative if someone can tell me what it is, please.

June Bud. Looks like a Colmanara Wildcat to me. (made up of Miltonia, Odontoglossum and Oncidium) I'm sure others will chime in to help you with ID

I found several different online photos of Colmanara Wildcat "Carmela" which look just like it. Thank you, Bellini Girl!

I have the same I think



I could mine identify as Carmela thanks to the tag with the growers website on it.
Mine smell's so good and it flowers quit long!
Did you notice it's smell?


Btw, here you see the bulbs from mine:

I thought I was going to lose it from over-watering, when it developed a fungus that caused several of the pseudobulbs to get big black spots. I cut back a bit on watering, but then some of the newer leaves were got wavy. I think that's a sign of too little water. Just when I figured this is an unhappy plant, a spike appeared. With that one in full bloom, another spike started to shoot up. I never noticed a fragrance.

Thanks for the ID, everyone!

Hello June,
mine smells the most when the sun is shining. Now the buds are open for several weeks the smell is easy to notice. I can smell it when I'm 6-8 foot away from the plant.
If yours doens't smell it might be a different plant. although they look the same. I've never read that Carmela smell's so mabye mine isn't what it looks like :-)

It is definitely a Colmanara Wildcat
