Default Stanhopea Mem. Paul Allen
A cross between S. ecornuta and S. tigrina..

The flower is already a couple of days old and looking a little sad, but it had a beautiful clear green 'nose' (?) and nice bright orange and magenta markings.

The scent is kind of white floral, sweet but not really overpowering.

It's great because it can flower twice a year and is pretty free-flowering!
