    Default HELP! I need an I.D. for this oncidium...

    Hi everyone...I was given this as a gift, but have no idea which oncidium it is! Wish I did because it blooms at least twice a year, Fall and Spring. Can anyone help identify this one? Thanks...Betty :-)

    There are a lot of yellow hybrid oncidiums out there so it's pretty much impossible to give the exact name.

    Well, I looked it up on images, and it looks just like "Sweet Sugar." Sooooo, that is what I'm now calling it! Thanks, everyone who responded...Betty :-)
