Ctt. Doris and Byron 'Christmas Rose' HCC/AOS
Ctt. Doris and Byron 'Christmas Rose' HCC/AOS (C. Love Castle x Ctt. Candy Tuft). I got this two years ago at an orchid show in bloom with 2 flowers. It bloomed last year same time with 2 blooms as well. This year it has 2 spikes with 3 blooms each. I really like this plant as it seems to be a robust grower and reliable bloomer. Blooms are also scented with a nice fresh floral scent. I have seen this hybrid in a more solid pink and mine was like that when I bought it. But I grow mine pretty cool and when the buds open they are white with a hint of pink. After a few days indoors, they are the colour shown here. I Like it as is 
As you can see, it loves my clear pots too and has a mass of healthy roots. |

From what you've described, I'd much prefer the color yours is currently.
Interesting flower form -- looks more like a Dendrobium flower.
