oncidium star wars VS sugar sweet angel
Hi all,
Are these two names used interchangably for the same plant? To me the flowers look a like (yellow with red dots). Thanks -- Please visit Horace's Page of Eternal Art http://members.shaw.ca/hluong68/indexf.html |
Nope, Oncidium Star Wars and Oncidium Sweet Sugar ('Angel" is simply a
cultivar of it) are totally different hybrids, however the species Onc. varicosum plays a very large role in the background of each, which can explain the similarity. Now you see why identifying a plant by observing the blossom can be so futile! -- Ray Barkalow - First Rays Orchids - www.firstrays.com Plants, Supplies, Books, Artwork, and Lots of Free Info! ..
