This one opened this past week. It has a total of 14 flowers on the spike. It is a near primary hybrid but is 2 parts Lemboglossum bictoniense and 1 part Odontoglossum rossii (specifically L. bictoniense X Odm. Bic-ross). Does well under cool conditions. Minimum winter temps average 12 C with days below 20 C.

Barbara, just for the record, I grow all my orchids on my windowsills. I do have a few that have spilled over to the greenhouse at work but those are the sun lovers...most Odont hybrids and paphs are growing at home. I have 10 orchids currently in bloom.
