Thumbs up Encyclia peraltensis

Encyclia peraltensis is found in Costa Rica at elevations around 500 to 600 meters as a medium sized, hot growing epiphyte that blooms in the spring. The flower size is .8" [2 cm]. The plant shown is only 6" [15cm] tall.
Checking the orchidspecies.com photo database, this flower looks more like the mexican form, with lighter green sepals, petals infused with red towards the tips.
This plant was purchased from Miranda Orchids last month. Francisco Miranda spoke at our orchid society and he brings - sells plants !!
Also purchased:

Brassavola perrinii
Cattleya (Tripp Johnson x Netrasiri Beauty)
Den. Maui Blush (Den. Blushing Pink x Den. Ise)
Encyclia Gail Nakagiki (alata x cordigera)
Laelia purpurata (flammea 'CG' x striata lisa)
Rhyncholaelia digbyana

That's a cutie, Charlie, so tiny! You have a very interesting mix of plants there. Will look forward to more pics as they bloom for you.
