    That is a really cool flower! Anyone know the name?

    Is it some sort of Oncidium?

    That is beautiful! I love the curly edges, any idea what species it is? I am new to orchids still and don't always make good guesses at species.

    Based on the spike habit I would say it's not a Vanda...again not 100% sure.

    I take it back. A better guess would be Cyrtochilum ramossismum...final answer.
