Default ID help?
My husband gave me this orchid for Valentine's Day, and I love it, but it had no identification tag. Can anyone tell me what it is?

It's an Odontoglossum hybrid. Possibly an Odonticidium. Looks like a lot of Odont. spectatissimum influence, but could be other.

I found this: (Miltonidium Gilded Urchin x Odontioda Helen Perlite) 'Golden Star.' I wish it was larger, but it is what it is.

What do you think? Pretty close?

I looked on OrchidWiz to see if I could find a pic of it, but I could not. I looked in the oncidiums, miltassias and brassias. No luck.
