× Burrageara, abbreviated Burr. in the horticultural trade,[1] is the nothogenus for intergeneric hybrids between the orchid genera Cochlioda, Miltonia, Odontoglossum and Oncidium (Cda. x Milt. x Odm. x Onc.). First time it was grown in 1927 by American Albert Burrage.
This is one of the easier orchids. One of the most beautiful too. This orchid has a wide spectrum of requirements, because it born by the mix of four genera. One right place could be the living room, near to the window but not directly exposed to sun rays. The plant needs one fifty percent of humidity, and heating is not the most suitable for some plant.
