Its quite importent to me, this one...I dont want to do any big mistakes...

Oncidium Alliance would be my guess....Miltonia, Miltoniopsis, Odontogl, Oncidium..... for me it is tough without a flower....

The flower looks a bit like this cPanelŽ, but a bit more wrinkly/"flussy". Medium to small size, I think...

Why didnt I take pictures of the flower...

Nope
Its more flussy, and a bit smaller. And not the same color, but it is the closest ě`ve seen to it... Same shape, but more flussy.

I got this answer from Quiltergal in the first tread I posted, does some have a link to a flowering orchid in this family?

Quote:
It looks a bit like an Odontocidium I have. Same size pbulbs and leaf structure. It's in the Oncidium alliance for sure. They like high to medium light, intermediate temps and plenty of water when actively growing. If you start to see leaf pleating in the new growth you let it dry out too much.
Thanks for helping me!
