Oncidium kaulanii?

[daemondamian]

I bought 2 orchids at my last local orchid club meeting; a big one mounted in spike and a small potted one.

The name is Oncidium kaulanii. I've googled but I can't findy anything on what the flowers may look like..

So if anyone out there knows please let me know!

Thanks

Thanks Fren!
the tag did say kaulanii but I have gotten plants before that were mislabelled and I think it probably is kaiulani..

I'm going to have to move mine soon, its on the bottom shelf and the spike is almost touching the bottom of the above shelf.

I will be taking pics of the blooms soon I hope

I just did a google on Oncidium kaiulani.

Here are two results:
Fleurs Orchids, Oncidium Kaiulani
Translated version of http://www.infojardin.com/fotos/displayimage.php?album=lastup&cat=-3508&pos=8

Do you think the second one just looks more white from possibly the flash on the camera? Or does it open white and turn pink?

I think are the same cross but different plants. There could be variations between plants. Perhaps some with lighter colouration

When you plant blooms you will definitely know what cross it is

Thanks Fren that makes sense
Ok so it is a capital K not a lower case k [and therefore not a species]. Any chance you know what the cross is made of? I wonder if you can search the RHS registry with just the cross name?

Kaiulani = flexuosum x ornithorhynchum
