Wow!! Thats one huge and happy orchid!!!!!! From this distance, to me, it could be anything with a pseudobulb. Maybe a Catt type.

No, Tin - look at those old flower spikes. Looks like a very large Encyclia type to me

If I remember correctly they were small yellow flowers, I really wasn't into orchids then.

OK, i was wrong. The pic posted previously was also by you, flhiker, and was a Cat. (bowringiana??). But, different tree, location, etc.
Im too bold i guess. Id just go up and knock on the door and ask if they knew what it was. Either they too are orchid lovers, or just happened to purchase a home with monster cats growing on them.
