What is this?
This is a plant I've had for a few years, which periodically reblooms with
these lovely star shaped speckled orange flowers. Unfortunately, no label. Can anyone help me figure out what this is? A few of the leaves have accordioned a bit, making me wonder if this might be an oncidium. Thanks, Chuck Berlin |

It's got some Brassia in it and either Odontoglossum (Odontobrassia)
or Ada (Brassada) is likely, but hybrids are IMPOSSIBLE to identify from pictures. Even mericlones can vary. Enjoy it, it is lovely. Marquis Z. Hodes, MD, PhD On Sat, 21 Feb 2009 14:56:40 -0500, "C.

What is this?
Thanks for the information. Perusing web photos, it does look a lot like
some of the brasadas posted, which is helpful. Taxonomy and identifications remain murky to me; I do understand that this is complicated stuff requiring close study of actual specimens. I'm happy just to be in the general ballpark with those plants in my collection. This usually gives me enough information to do some cultural research when necessary. My pleasure comes from the gradual thriving and flowering of the plants in my small collection. I have no aspirations to show anything so am less concerned about precise nomenclature. Chuck B.
