| Got another $5 orchid, this one is labeled as an Oncidium on the barcode, but the tag does not reflect that. I cannot make out what the tag says sadly, though I probably could figure it out if I knew more about orchids. Which is where you come in.
W___ D___ Gold?

| Not very dehydrated at all, in fact in pretty good condition. For $5, a bargain. The Wils bit is short for Wilsonara. As for the rest, should be easy, but maybe the gold bit should be in quotes. Those other three letters are a mystery and whoever wrote the tag should be ashamed, but no doubt if asked they would say "Whats the problem" ! |

| Thanks, as always! I got this from the same place as my Latouria Den that you helped me with. They seem to always have a few on a steep sale (25-30 down to 5!) but they hide them really, really well and never in the same place LOL! Last time they were in a basket underneath a table, this time they were up against the wall on table under a shelf behind a bunch of Phals lol |

| Perhaps, maybe the grex name is just one word. Wilsonara Dangold |

| RHS lists it as one word so that is what the tag should have but I see it listed as two words quite often. You can verify the name when it blooms. |
