    Nice one Tom. Yours is more redish/purple where mine is more orange/red. One feature which is typical for R. contorta seems to be the leaves being slightly bended from one side of the leave. The leave 'touching' the lip on your photo shows this perfectly.

    I have no clue what you are talking about. To me, the leaves look just like those on other Restrepia. In my eyes, they look pretty much the same except Restrepia chocoensis.
