Need help identifying an Oncidium
Hello everyone, I am a new member, and this is my first post. I've used Orchid Board for a long time for orchid information, and I've finally decided to create an account. I can't seem to find any information that might lead to finding the name of this Oncidium orchid, and I was hoping someone here might help me out.
I purchased this Oncidium last September from a Trader Joes grocery store. I chose it because it was extremely healthy, had 2 flower spikes, and was bursting out of its pot. It seems like a steal for $12.95. The tag on it said nothing more than that it was an Oncidium/Odontoglossum intergeneric hybrid, and it was grown by Matsui Orchids of Salinas, Ca. I can't seem to find anymore info from the Matsui Orchids website.
It's a vigorous grower, pretty much doubling in size since the last blooms have faded. The flowers themselves are on the small side, and are densely clustered on the flower spike. In my research to find the name of this orchid, I've found one that has flowers that look nearly identical, it's called Oncidium Cleo's Pride. The difference being the color of the labellum, Cleo's Pride having a white lip and my NoID having a pale yellow lip. All the other markings are the same shape and color. That's all the info I have, hopefully someone can help me out.
