Dockrillia teretifolium finally bloomed, but not what was expected

[Miyuki]

I ordered this Dockrillia teretifolium 18 months ago. The spike was actually quite hidden, tucked into a crevice in the cork mount. There were 3 buds, but I lost 2 after I moved the inflorescence into the light where I could watch it. When this last bud finally opened, it was obviously not what I ordered. I'm hoping someone can enlighten me as to what it is. The leaves look exactly like the photos I have of teretifolium. I was hoping the bud would open more, but it has stayed in a bell shape and after about a week, it is starting to fade. The size is about 1/2" - 3/4" long. Thanks for any help!

That's too bad you had to wait 18 months to find out the plant isn't what you ordered. Do you think it is a Dockrillia fuliginosa?

I agree with Zoi2. It looks like fuliginosa. fuliginosa used to be part of teretifolium, which explains the label on your plant.

Thanks so much! It definitely looks like fuliginosa, and it is also on the vendor's online catalogue. I emailed them yesterday, but have not had a response yet.
