Default non flowering orchid

Mhari,

When you say 'small yellow flowers', do you mean like this?

http://herba.msu.ru/shipunov/e-album...idium-k111.jpg If so,
that's an Oncidium.

Or like this?

If so, that's a yellow Phal.

If it looked different than either one of those, then we need more info
about its looks -- you can go to a library or bookstore and look through a
book on orchids for a picture that looks similar to your orchid, then check
the caption of the photo to find out what kind of orchid it is. You see
there are many different kinds of orchids, and small yellow flowers is not
enough for us to determine what kind. The different kinds of orchids have
different requirements such as different amount of light required for
flowering.

Best,
Joanna

My orchid (with small yellow flowers when bought new) has not flowered
since which is 2 years ago.
