Field Notes

Description:

An orchid at the community college teaching greenhouse that I manage. Bloomed about two weeks ago (mid summer in the northern hemisphere). I've worked there for 4 years and have been babying all of the orchids and this one finally bloomed. Any ideas?

Habitat:

Greenhouse

Likely an intergeneric hybrid of the Oncidium alliance. Looks like it has Miltonia spectabilis in it.
