Calling all oncidium intergeneric experts and aficionados -
Need help identifying some impulse purchases!
(Is it even possible to tell Oncidium intergenerics apart? Or are there so many of them?)
So, I was seriously considering shelling out real money for some of these, shopping around real growers/sellers, looking at $20-$40/plant, not necessarily in bloom, plus shipping.... Walked into TJ's and saw these and - hey - these are basically exactly what I was looking at! But, only $15, multiple spikes. Potted in soil, which is weird but what the hey, I could take them home that day.
I think two of them might be varieties of Oncostele (formerly Colmanara) Wildcat, the dark one especially; but there are many varieties of Wildcat, so even if I'm correct it's still inexact.
1.
Oncostele Wildcat?

3.
