Looking for: Spanish Dancer 'Harlequin'
Anyone know where I can get one? I'm smitten with it.

I'm looking and looking (and normally I'm pretty good at digging stuff up on internet) but I'm not finding anything, not even other photos of it. I'm thinking that this might be just a freak of nature, or the author of the photo you linked gave this unique Spanish Dancer the 'harlequin' name.

Hehe...I had to Google chimera. So yeah... its definitely got its freak on!
Izzie-- I wonder if the orchid place up in Longmont might know of a place to score one of these... what the heck is the name of that place? I've brain dumped it just now-- that tip-of-the-tongue syndrome.

You thinking of Fantasy Orchids in Louisville? I don't know of any other large vendors in CO.
And yeah, chimerism is super awesome- particularly in horses. That's how you get the brindle types- or like my friend's horse, white on one side of the head and chestnut on the other- separated with a perfectly straight line going down the muzzle.
