I think I found the correct name it is Miltassia Olemec 'Kanno'. My wifes boss has over 700 orchids and has orchidwiz software and found it there.

I agree, Miltassia Olmec Kanno.

It looks similar to but defintiely not a Shelob. Here's my Shelob, from better days as it's now struggling to stay alive.

I'm glad you could find the correct info, but even without a name it's gorgeous. Marilyn

Whatever it is it's very nice.

Definitely a Miltassia though, glad it's identity has been sorted out.......lol.

I'm glad you managed to get an ID for it.
