This cross was made by Beall's and registered in 1983. They produced many seedlings of Sharry Baby so some of the old timers will have various original clones. The clone 'Sweet Fragrance' was awarded and mericloned, and that is mostly what you see these days. If you look at a bunch of mericlones of 'Sweet Fragrance' you will see a lot of variation in the plants, and some of these have been reproduced as different clones. Sometimes, you can weed through a big batch of mericlones and find some better than the original and some are even tetraploid.

The fragrance is from Oncidium ornithorynchum which is a grandparent.
