Taken at the Northwest Orchid Society Show. Couldn't find a name tag, however, which was a disappointment. The copper color is outstanding.

Lovely! The Iwanagara Apple Blossom is lovely! I have never seen the white one before. Really beautiful flowers and, of course, amazing photography!

Thanks, Leaf. Appreciate the nice comments.

I've never seen the white Apple Blossom before either. As I am discovering, there are a lot of orchid that I;ve never seen before . Thanks for the Pics Ron.

A friend has suggested that is Mighty Sunset, 'Roxburgh Red'.

There are more and more vibrant orange Cym hybrids out there to attempt to put a name on this cultivar. I could name at least a half a dozen crosses from which this flower might have come. The form on this particular cultivar lacks a flat form but does have a nice color.

Again, the warning about putting names on orchids where the tag has been lost. ....Please do not do it.....

Yes, I know the warning, and there is no danger. In this case the plant does not belong to me and I do not even know the owner. For all I know it may already have a name. It was photographed at the Northwest Orchid Society show last spring.
