Just a correction here... It 's not a generalized true that all Oncidium related plants are called cambria in Europe! Tney are only generally called Cambria by the Mass production Nurseries especialized in selling their plants to supermarkets and big stores like IKea & Co. The reason for this generalization is that they all (those called "Cambria", which are not all Ondicidium related plants!) have similar cultural needs as Vuylstekeara Cambria and the instructions are intended for most people who has no further interest in orchids than just haviong nice flowers for a period of time (and then they put the plant in the trash)
Outside that market, all plants receive the correct name as accepted in Botany and Horticulture...
