ID help

[mcitil]

Here is one for you folks who are good at id'ing without a photo of the bloom. No one has been able to help me yet. I've heard possibly an oncidium, except its flower stalk grows terminally from the pseudobulb, not from the bottom.
Some also said maybe a prosotheaca <sp?>? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Looks similar to Encyclia. Look at this http://www.ottawaorchidsociety.com/p...ia_citrina.jpg

I'm thinking Cattleya from the way the spike is emerging.

I'm going more with a Broughtonia or Encyclia (and segregate genera) outlook on that one... Cattleya have elongated bulbs, while this one is tightly clustered and bulbous.

I think Ive got it. Laelia rubescens. Check out the link for a pic of a positively id'ed l. rubescens. Let me know if you think Im right!

How can you know for sure what the mystery plant is without seeing the flower?
Get it to flower, then have it Id'd

Could it be a 'Mule ear' Oncidium?

So many different ideas. And only one is correct... It is really better to wait for flowers.
