Tom this plant was photographed at the Mass. Orchid Show when it was still held at the National Guard Armory in Lexington back in the 1980's. Then many of our members favored species; and we had access to plant material from J&L Orchids, Ben Berliner, Ann & Phil Jessup The MOS show is now held at Tower Hill Botanical Gardens. I had showed the picture to Lucinda Winn of J&L Orchids (Easton, Conn) and when she called her partner Cordelia Head - they thought it might be of Den.leucocyanum which they still grow. Maybe it was their plant.
