I bought this during my last outing. The lady said it was a small purple cattleya. After looking at the flower i'm thinking it is a schomburgkia cross. I'll have to come up with a good nickname. It looks somewhat like Kodama, but the flowers are much smaller and the smell is way different. This one smells spicy...somewhat like cinnamon candy.

It's beautiful, Connie, NOID or not. And fragrant, too? That is just perfect! Betty :-)
Beautiful orchid. It is so lovely I would call it "I don't give a "Darn" if it's a NOID"
beautiful, I like it!
Nice acquisition, Connie. Love the colour.
Connie, I really like the color and the delicate blooms. A real beauty. I picked up a Pot. Paradise Rose 'Fuschia' a few days ago, and although the blooms are a bit damaged, they are an intense purple color also, but only a faint fragrance, that I can smell.
Cheers,
Tony
It's very pretty. You could call it " Spicy Cinnamon Candy"
Cattlianthe Bactia Grape wax is my vote also. Really a pretty orchid.
cheers,
