Default Laelia alaorii Brieger & Bicalho
Charming little gem! These are way 'darker' than the regular flowers of the species, which are pale pink, almost white. Also, these have broader segments than normal. The species comes from the Brazilian State of Bahia, likes relatively hot temps, good air movement and bright light.
