Phalaenopsis sumatrana in bloom

[orchidsworld]

Nice flower... but for me it's not a sumatrana... It looks like Ambotrana, sumatrana x amboinensis (var flavida)

I supose it could be, I can only go by the tag. I've nothing to compare it to. The blossom stem is not like an amboinensis tho.
Thanks,
AL

[edit] Also wanted to add that the leaves of this plant are not like the amboinenses (I do have that one). These are light in color, quite wide and wavey, like a P. violacea. The spike also grows out and down (short stem). the ambo has "regular" spikes that grow "up" and branch.
