Default Cym. Sweet Mystery 'SD'

Hello all...
I bought a blooming seedling at a recent show that bears the grex name Sweet Mystery, and the clonal moniker 'SD'. I've tried tracking down the parentage on this plant on both the RHS site and by using the cymbidium parentage link at the SBO site--to no luck. A google search has not been helpful either. I have contacted the nursery, and was told that the plant came from a buying trip in Hawaii, so that's about all that I have to go on for the moment. Just curious as to whether any of the rest of you have encountered this plant or might be able to give me some further info. Mostly I would like to know the lineage--the plant is quite small (I would put this in the "teacup" range), with novelty type flowers.
Thanks! If a pic would help, say the word and I'll add one.
Adam

Hi Adam

I checked Orchidwiz and it's not listed so it's an unregistered hybrid. Sorry I couldn't help you with this one

Thanks CB...I suspect that it is from one of the Japanese breeders...some of whom seem to register very little of what they produce.
