Kingianum-esque Trader Joe's find.
 
I was traveling from grocery store to nursery all over where I live.
Not in search for orchids but for mini roses lol.
But this one caught my eye.
I'm guessing it's either kingianum or a hybrid of kingianum.
Smells strongly of musky hyacinth.

It was too cute not to get.

As much as I'm loving the promix these orchids come in, with the particular orchid it makes me nervous.

Great find! i agree that kingianum is strongly in its parentage.

I think so too! They had two others at a different Trader Joe's just today!

Are you thinking hybrid?
Either way it's adorable.

Very pretty! It looks very healthy, too. :)

Very nice pickup! Looks to me more like Bardo Rose (falcorostrum x kingianum) or something similar than straight kingianum, but who knows...

It is very healthy! I'm really enjoying the structure of the psuedobulbs on this plant.

I honestly can't really tell the difference between the two lol.
Maybe one-day one will come in with a tag and then I'll know.
