Pot. Psycho Bride?

[lotis146]

Those look like pretty decent sized flowers relative to the size of the plant, nice. That's great too that you were able to get some ID help here. As I was reading in the beginning I was thinking maybe it's under a different genus name and sure enough! I've run into this problem myself with a Zygo hybrid; these names sure can be frustrating at times and I'm still in Orchid infancy!

Wow, I really like it! That shade of yellow combined with that purple...

What a bizarre name for a beautiful flower

I got mine from an asian vendor 2 years ago at the redlands show, mine is closer to the color of yours but a bit brighter on the petals.

Ok, now I saw this orchid on Ebay. Mini cat with a cool name... oh ya I bought it.

Yeah, I bought mine on a whim too (that name appeals to the cynic in me).

My only concern is that my wife will notice that plant, and think that the name is a reflection on her.

Well my Psycho Bride had it's first bloom for me. The plant looks like a Psycho due to cold damage in shipping last year but it's a trooper. I think next year will be even better. The blooms are small about 2 inches and scented. They smell like roses to me.

I almost got one of these three different times. The first time the pod parent was what convinced me to put it back on the shelf.

Here is my Psycho Bride I got it last year from a local nursery. I blooms for me twice a year. Very easy grower

[wintergirl]

Really nice. Hopefully mine will bloom twice a year and have more blooms next time. Were yours scented?

Very faint, but yes. A light floral scent.
