Default flower with weird smell?
I recently bought an onc. orchid from trader joes. It has dark orange and yellow flowers. When the sun is shining on the flowers there is a strong smell of urine? Has anybody any ideas? I have asked my kid to smell it whithout telling them what I thought and they all said the same.

NO WAY

If it is Mtdm. Hawaiian Sunset it's no wonder they gave it a pretty name at least...

Yes, but did you ask them if they peed on it?

I haven't heard of an Oncidium smelling like urine... but now I need to smell that Mtcd. Hawaii Sunset that I see at Walmart and Home Depot...

This is getting weird. I thought you all were kidding, but now I need to personally check the smells before buying? Weird.
