To me it looks like you have Phrag Sedenii (longifolium x schlimii), which is the parent of Cardinale (Sedenii x schlimii), or Phrag Rosy Gem (Cardinale x Sedenii). Though you might get this from a F2 Cardinale (Cardinale x Cardinale). Shape and color are both a bit disappointing if you expected a good Cardinale, too much Phrag longifolium coming through. It is impossible to say for sure though. Color could be better on another flowering with cooler temps or more light.

I was thinking that it looked more like Phrag Sedenii as well. I'm only going by what was on the label. It wouldn't be the first mislabeled orchid that I've bought.

I like it!!!! The petals are interesting because they are sort of curly. Good thing you want to keep it because I would have Orchid Board stalked you until you gave it to me jk.
