I bought it ~ a year ago on sale, without blooms and in very poor condition, and with this funny tag naming it Cambria.
Can anyone pls help with identification of this chid?
Thanks!

It is obviously not Vuyl. Cambria and is probably an Odontocidium but an exact ID is pretty difficult unless someone has a mericlone that is the same. Perhaps there is a nursery mentioned on the tag and you could contact them? I have not seen this particular plant before........

There is one that looks a lot like yours near the bottom of the page ..Google Image Result for http://www.bluebarngrowers.com/images/large/BV182-02.JPG

Almost but not quite the same it is hard to make a positive ID so many out there .. Gin

"Cambria" is often used to refer to all Oncidium alliance intergenerics, not just Vuylstekeara Cambria. in this case, I think Simon has it, it's Odontocidium Hansuelli Isler.

Thank you ALL! And Merry Christmass!
Yes, here in Europe 'Cambria' often refers to Oncidium alliance intergenerics, that this is not a Vuyl. that for sure.

Odnc. Hansuelli Isler looks the closest.
Thanks!

That's interesting, I've never seen 'Cambria' used for anything but Vuyl Cambria. Kind of a dangerous precident!

I don't know in the USA, but in Europe, as Vina said, it is quite common to find any intergeneric hybrids within the Oncidium alliance labelled as Cambria. Especially those coming from large orchids nurseries specialized in massive plant production for supermarkets & Co.
