Phragmipedium Andean Fire 'Sol Fenick' AM/AOS
I'm normally not a "lady-slipper" kind of gal (honestly, it's just because they hate me), but I saw this at the Pittsburgh Botanical Gardens (Phipps) and had to snap a picture!

Wow that's interesting! It looks like it has propellers. Good call getting a pic.

That's pretty nice. I like how the flavum variety of this hybrid often has those contrasting pale green to yellow-green sepals. It's lovely.

Great find. The only Phrags I come across in life are also at my local botanical gardens. Living vicariously through them.
