Dendrobium update: It turns out its a Phal.

[Myst]

thank you Camille for the ID on it.
I have to say though, that I am slightly disappointed first that its not what I was told I was getting, and second that I paid quite a bit more for it...
also, it was hard walking into the grocery store this afternoon to see a very similar orchid for half the price.
So what do you guys think?
Should I let the shop know they didnt actually sell me the Dendrobium i had ordered?

I think you should - especially since you are not happy
you should be able to return and hopefully get the plant you wanted - and at the lower price if that is the one you want

hope it works out for you
