As someone said above, I think it looks awful lot like a leimianum, which I have in bloom right now.
I know hybrids can be variable, but it looks so different than most other Pinocchio I've seen.
One of its parents glaucophylum does have white halo on the dorsal, but it does not seem dominant in Pinocchio.
With all this said, I don't think one can say it is not Pinocchio.
I bought mine at a show in spike and a new growth starting.
I have to say it's a good thing I bought one in spike, because one, it has been in bloom constantly since, and two, that new growth is now over one year old and still not mature. Slowest thing ever!!! lol

I think I'll only change the name if the grower I bought it from were to confirm it was something else. For now he's still selling them as Pinocchio

Nope, I don't have 2. What I meant is that I ordered from there a few days before, and if you had tempted me before that I would have probably really thought about adding it to my order

I agree, whatever it is it's very nice & that's a great pic of it too. Well done.
Interesting complications here. And I feel the pain about fans taking so long to mature. I keep thinking it's me but hearing others say their plants are taking forever makes me feel better.  Good luck, amybe someone else needs to buy one of these from that seller. |

A second bloom finished opening this weekend, so it seems that I get to enjoy a double bloom for at least a few days!!
