I picked this guy up from the mini orchid section in Trader Joe's.
One flower is out. And the other bruised.
But the plants in good shape.
It's sundown so I can't detect any fragrance.

I was charmed by its mini size and bright yellow colour. But mainly the shape caught my eye.

I doubt it's a registered hybrid. Despite their tags the mini cattleyas at TJ's rarely ever are.
The psuedobulb is about 2.5" . Including leaves and 5" tall.

Looks very healthy and the flowers are really pretty! Great find! I hope it will turn out to be fragrant!

Very. Same colour as daffodils. Cute and spring like.

Mounting ok?
I prefer to mount my cattleyas but one or two aren't happy out of a pot.

I sure hope it is too! Extremely pleased with this orchid.

I detected a few traces of something in the car but the sun was gone and I had another orchid with me...

Good! It's small enough to fit under my lights I think.

Oh! And....... no fragrance!
Very very sad. I always love fragrance.
But I guess if it's going behind my fish tank under my lights it really doesn't need to smell lol.

I came back again to say.
A faint odor at the very height of the day.
I say odor because it smells like daisies. Which I find unpleasant. It's a good thing it's barely there.
