    Ron, I'm no Onc. specialist. I'm no specialist at all. I just like orchids and every now and again I can indulge my fascination. Check if your plant is the Oncidium sphacelatum. If it is not, then it's a really CLOSE cousin.

    A guess here... Onc. maculatum x Zed. Valley Gold = Onc. valley gold.
