I got a second Bc. Hamlyn’s Magic ‘Leilani’(first was from the end of year party 2 weeks ago)from my local orchid society’s raffle tonight—I just gravitated towards the yellow flower and didn’t even realize what it was until I checked the tag. Personally, I’m thrilled—I think it has MORE character precisely because it isn’t as colorful as its siblings!
After looking through a bunch of pictures of different siblings posted by different vendors and enthusiasts, I can’t seem to find one quite like what I’ve got—could this plant have been mislabeled or could I really have gotten an odd “var. aurea” type of Hamlyn’s Magic?
What are your opinions? Thanks in advance!
Spent bloom compared to the new one

The archetype—spent bloom looked like this.
