Oncidium Alliance?

[SweetAddy]

Hi everyone, I just joined up and am very much looking forward to participating in these forums. I've been tending orchids for about a year now, so there is plenty to learn

I was at a local Christmas Tree Shop the other day, and stumbled upon these beautiful orchids (of all places!!!). Believe it or not, they were 14.99 apiece, and are in fantastic shape, with strong pseudobulbs and healthy root growth. They've been blooming like crazy!

The problem is, they weren't identified... only labeled as epiphytes! I knew enough that I could tell both were in the Oncidium alliance, and that the yellow inflorescences looked like a Brassidium. I couldn't figure out the ruddy colored one, and could use second opinions if yall could spare them.

The yellow I think looks like a Brassidium "Shooting Star Black Gold"?

yes - the first looks like a Brassia or hybrid of
the second - some Oncidium allliance inter-generic - Colmanara maybe ? tho I think that has a new name

#2

probably:
Odonticidium Wildcat 'Jaguar'

Hello and welcome to the OB, you sure got a great deal on those lovely plants!

Welcome to Orchid Board.

I think the suggestion by SOS for #2 is likely to be something close. I have one like it as well and came to the conclusion it was something like that although I don't think I will ever know for certain.

Ok, here comes part two of the challenge. I raided Christmas Tree Shop AGAIN, and there were more beautiful plants in excellent health and in bloom. Of course I snatched them all up! Any thoughts on these NOIDs? I know it's a far shot, but hey, any thoughts would help!

Also, apologies for the huge pics

#3: Noid Dendro...

#4: Looks a little similar to the Brassidium "Shooting Star Black Gold", but petals less pointed and less yellow?

So...buried in the very bottom of the crowded pots, I found two smashed tags for 2 of the 'chids. Here's what I found...

#4:
Brassidium "Wild Warrior"

#5:
Odcdm. Catatante "Pacific Sunspots"

Two down...
