I don't have a clue about the name, but it's very pretty. It's almost impossible to put a definitive name to an untagged hybrid, but no i.d. plants are still worthy in my book.

Hard to pinpoint exactly. Looks like it has some Brassavola nodosa influence and looks kinda Brassocattleya Keowee'ish.

It is a beautiful NOID.

Default Yes this was a Better-gro orchid that I lost the tag from.

I went to the Better-gro web site and followed quite a few leads/links from the site but could not find any pictures that matched my orchid.
Great suggestion though.

Without a tag, there is nothing 100 percent about identity unless you had the tag originally and need a memory reminder. That said, your very beautiful flower looks alot like Blc. Haiku Dawn 'Sunshine and Raspberries'. But, what it looks like and what it is is two different things. It is though a very beautiful noid. Still worth having in a collection.

Default Pretty sure it's Blc. Haiku Dawn 'Sunshine and Raspberries'

I googled Blc. Haiku Dawn 'Sunshine and Raspberries' and saw some good close up photos from various sources. To my untrained eye this looks like my orchid.
Thanks.
