Lost the label on this orchid with tiny white blooms

[Rosiefuture]

HI, There used to be a label on this orchid but with the passage of time it's gone missing.









Hope someone can tell me because I just can't remember
The little blooms are only 1cm across with yellow in the throat and tiny splotches of pink.

Thanks

sorry, i dont know what it is, but its awful pretty....

Yes it is pretty and very easy to grow. It likes quite a high level of light, flowers freely and throws huge amounts of keiki's. I'd just like to know what it's called, for some reason I keep thinking it starts with an N but I could be way off.

OOOOOhhhhhh Kip! Thanks so much! That's wonderful! Just Googled it and there they all are just like my plant.

Is it a species on it's own or is it related to others? (Can you tell I don't know what I'm talking about??LOL)

it's pretty much on its own. the closest relative is Polystachya.
