LOST the tag on the new chid, any ideas

[phearamedusa]

I'm having a day, I just purchased this chid, it had a tag when I picked it up...said something Pacificia..something.. patent pend....
I went back to the floral dept hoping it had fallen out when they wrapped it, no such luck. It does have a very slight fragrance. Anyone heard of this one.

RHS has a Spruceara Pride of Pacifica (formerly Vuylstekeara, darn those taxonomists), which is Vuylstekeara Robin Pittman x Miltoniopsis Little Orphan Annie.
RE: name changes - at least I can't spell either of these.
Cheers - Nancy

Look at some pics of Pacific Truffle "Surrogate Star" it's close to this hybrid, which has pat. pending also. Says it's a Goodaleara.

I checked back with the store, they are getting orders every Tuesday and Thursday. When I went in today they had about four more of them all tagged as Goodaleara Pacific Truffle "Surrogate Star".
So thank you very much Carol because I was going with it from your suggestion and this just confirmed it for me. I of course left today with two more chids. Burr. Jimbo "Swarm" and another one that I forget the name of right now. other one is Alxra Vera Jenn "Muana Rea".
