Default Encyclia ambigua
This is a Mexican species of Encyclia, very floriferous and fragrant. It has a really beautiful lip as can be seen in detail below.

I love it Mauro! I have several Encyclia species in my collection, but not this one...although it is on my wish list now! Is it a big plant?

Thanks for another wonderful post!

Not that large, David. Something around 35-40cm, but the floral stems are long, branched and full of flowers!
