I made another trip over there today and took a few more pictures. He told me it was an Encyclia hamburyii. Here is a better picture of the psuedobulbs growing on the tree and a few of the trunk.

Well it does look similar to that one also...but the reason I stated/guessed that it may have been selligera was simply because of the colour of the petals and sepals. Hamburyi tends to be more tan in colour and verging on a gold colour. Yours seems more brown/red.Originally Posted by brandankinfortpiercefl
As I said, I do stand corrected if that is actually it's species name.
Either way, it is fantastic.
Cheers
It's not dead! It's just permanently dormant.
That root system is amazing. It looks like that plant wont be going anywhere soon
