I call it Yellow sweet baby. ??
I saw this plant a week ago and passed it up. This time It was still there so I took it home. It smells so good sweet and strong.
The flowers are so cute and little. Any idea what kind of Oncidium it is?

Whatever it is, it's cute! There are so many Onc. hybrids and many have similar looks.

I just hoped someone on here might have the same plant with a name tag.
It is really cute and the flowers are not the normal Oncidium kind they are more rounded.

It is a bit different looking than the usual ones. I hope you have luck getting a possible ID |

If it doesn't come when you call it, why does it need a name?

I will just retrain it to come when I call it's new name .
I am going to call it "sweet kitten" because the flower shape is like the Colmanara wildcat .

I pulled it out of the pot the roots look good. It's a happy plant. Hope I can keep it that way.
The closest thing I found to it is a Colmanara Jungle Monarck 'Everglades'
It looks to be a Oncidium x Miltonia x Odontoglossum.

Jungle Monark has larger flowers with pointier petals and sepals.
Your plant is a varient of Oncidium Green Valley Honey.
I had that exact same plant from Trader Joe's in the past with the name tag saying what it is.
The fragrance is very powerful. I was not sure if I liked it or not. It was sweet at one moment and then it smelled like a moth ball at another. lol
It is such a strong grower and great bloomer just like many oncidium hybrids are.
