Hi,
I purchased this lovely orchid from Trader Joe's about a month ago and it didn't have the orchid name on it.
Can you help identify it? I've searched online for pictures, but I've been unsuccessful.
Do you know it's name? It's driving me crazy! Shrug!
Thanks!
Kristine

Thanks for the information! My TJ's has had quite a few unusual orchids lately so I've been scooping them up! Hurray!
