It is NOT Su-Fun-Beauty
I bought this as Ascda Su-Fun-Beauty. I believe it had the wrong label (attached with a wire to plant). I believe it is Bankok Brown because I bought a Bankok Brown at the same time and when it bloomed it looked more like Su-Fun-Beauty. I know that I did not mix up the labels because this had the name tag wired onto the plant it'self.
It has a very strong fragrance, especially in the morning. I can't seem to identify the fragrance, it isn't sweet, but it is rather pleasing.

Whatever it is, it's awesome. I love the lacquered terra cotta flowers.
Where did you get this one, Marilyn?

Angurek, I bought it from Natt's 2 years ago at a show. The plant has great roots, but it is a first time blooming.
You are right, the petals look fake they are so thick and glossy looking. It reminds me of V-merrilii X Gordon Dillon 'Lea' except 'Lea' is more of a red tone.

That's so funny!
When I read the title to the thread I thought it was a pun!
I thought you were using the orchid's name to say "NOT so (Su)-fun (Fun)-beauty (Beauty)"
