Stanhopea maculosa
 
Here's one that you don't see often. As a matter of fact, there's so few pictures out there that I don't know if this is even correct. It's similar to hernandezii but its different

Your phots look very much like those taken by Ron Parsons of Stan maculosa on page 244 of Rudolf Jenny's Stahopea Book.

honestly, I don't remember anymore, i hope it will bloom again in a few months and i'll take better notes. It similar in size to a typical occulata.

Very pretty. And yes, they do look remarkably like Stanhopea hernandezii flowers. Hernandezii has an almost overpowering scent (even for a stanhopea), and you probably wouldn't forget it. Congratulations on your beautiful flowers. Best of luck with reblooming it.
