Yeah, I guess I should have pointed out that it’s impossible to identify an orchid with precision if it comes to you without a name tag. There are so many look alikes.
To get around this I just use the term ‘like’ on the tag. So the tag might say ‘Miltonia like regnellii’ or ‘Oncidium like sweet sugar’. That way I don’t forget what the flower looks like, stops me buying duplicates, and gives me care information that is close enough for most purposes; and no-one needs to get upset about me incorrectly naming a noid.
Buying noids is a good way to expand a collection inexpensively, the current specimen being a good example.
