ODCM. Sunlight 'NN'
 
This is one of the new orchids I got last week at the NYBG orchid show.
It is about the size of my twinkle, yet much thicker leaves. very few small spots on the leaves. :)

This one has four smaller pbs and it looks like this is its first flowering. 7 dark orange brown spotty petals with bright yellow lip, there are also two swelling, which look to me like a branching off main spike. Unfortunately though, they are dried up dead looking.

The flowers has great scent to it all day and night.
sweet and citrusy. definitely a keeper! :biggrin:

What a nice one! I think it has a very wild look, with those leopard spots on it. Lucky you that it's also fragrant!

I like this one too! Fragrance is always a major bonus.

Thanks,everyone! what a powerful little guy, it fills up my livingroom with its strong citrusy scent.

Ryan, when you come to NYC, we'll go orchid shopping! :)

So I went back to the NYBG store to see what else I could find.
I found two pots of this little guy, except they were much larger, those spottings on the petals were a bit different, and the shape of the flowers were different. They are more pointy, almost like Tiger Crow Golden Girl.

I wonder if mine is just a baby or genetically smaller.
I counted how many pbs were on those bigger guys and it seems like mine might be just born small. :rofl:

Hmmm....I sor of want to buy the bigger one too. :)
I am moving in just one week now and really have to wait until after I move before I buy anything more. :biggrin:
