Label does not seem right
Default Label does not seem right

Label on my plant said
“Paph Supersuk 'Eureka' AM/AOS x Paph Raisin Pie 'Hsinying' ) x sib”
Does it seem right? Here is the photo of the plant in bloom. To me it looks like some sort of delenatii

No photo attached, but that hybrid is Paph. Hsinying Alien, and based upon the images submitted to Orchid Wiz (attached) is quite variable.

Precisely why IDing from flowers is so unreliable.

Thank you for your reply. Your photo solved my other question. As I was searching info on Alien, I could not comprehend why images of Alien plant are so different.
I attached photos of my orchid. Still learning how attachments and images work here.

Given that photo I think the label is wrong. Your plant's flowers are much nicer than Alien.

I was also thinking delenatii or hybrid of it when I saw the photo...
If it's a (somewhat) recent purchase it might be worth contacting the vendor to see what they think, or know what the label mix up was.

Thank you. I got this plant as a rescue package. It was my first Paph, so I did not know what to expect. I suspect that label just somehow got close to the plant, but as a matter of fact has nothing to do with this orchid.

I think you won the lottery. A lovely Paph delenatii. Is it fragrant? Some are, some aren't.

I do not detect any fragrance unfortunately. I am very happy this plant survived. And I feel fortunate. It had severe mealybugs infestation. Took me a couple of months of caring for barerooted plant. lesson learned. Hope we will enjoy each other company for some time.

Sniff it at different times of day. Could just be one of those shy ones. At any rate, it's beautiful. Especially, the dark pouch.
