Broughtonia sanguinea
I bought this plant two months ago, so I can take credit only for the photos. Since then the plant is flowering on and on. It is mounted on vertical wood and placed in a bright spot with moving air. I was told that it is grown from seed and more than 10 years old.
Coloration is 'tipo', no scent noticed.
Hamlyn has written an interesting survey for further info:

Great color. Strange I've never seen one that looks blood red.

When I joined the orchid society here in Jamaica and I was too geeked to meet the owner of Hamlyn orchids I had a total "fan girl" moment lol
