Encyclia vitellina
Let me first say that im SUPER EXCITED to have this species!! for a really long time I've been dilligently looking at website and shows trying to find it and im so happy to have it! Even happier to say that the place I found it was at work! it was hidden amongst an assortment of other plants hanging over head, I didn't know that my boss had it! I told him how much i liked it and that i was trying to find it. So later that day we discovered another one in the complete opposite side of the greenhouse, turns out they are divisions of the same plant and he gave me one!!  I HAVE THE BEST JOB EVER WITH THE BEST BOSS EVER!!! 
This thing is so cute! And the shape is great, its SUPER flat!!!

I know exactly how you feel. For me, it was angraecum magdalenae. She is still very precious. 
Congratulations! What a beauty! So glad you found one! |
