Default Unknown bulb from Vietnam

Fantastic color! Wish I could help you ID it but I don't have a clue about this one.

I believe it's Cirrhopetalum, but which species I don't know.

I don't do most Dendros or large, "floofy orchids". For me it's minis (like Angraecoides), Paphs, and others that crept in somewhere along the line. See my orchid list for complete collection (usually not current.)

Im kicking myself, because i passed up one of these at a recent show. The seller had it listed as an unknown species from Vietnam. I believe it was the same as yours based on the small clustered pseudobulbs, and especially the purple backed leaves. Very cool bloom. Good luck in ID.

Amazing. Please don't give up on the ID. Email the experts if you have to.

In form it is kind of like B. longissimum. But that color throws me off. Someone will get it.
