Miltoniopsis ID (best-guesses welcome!)

I can't believe I'm doing this, knowing as I do how hard it is to pin down a particular grex based on a single photo! That said...

I bought my partner a miltoniopsis at the OSWP Orchid Show yesterday, because she loves them and I THINK I can keep one happy in my new wardian case. Because it had a label, I just assumed the label had, oh, THE NAME OF THE PLANT on it. Not so. So here is the plant:



I bought it from one of those vendors who obviously purchases wholesale straight from places like Taiwan and does minimal re-potting, etc. of the plants he gets. So it's likely to be one of those hybrids that are "popular" right now, showing up everywhere from big box stores to eBay.

I don't breed, so the actual name doesn't really matter. But I'm OCD, and like to have something at least REMOTELY correct on the tag.

Thanks, everybody!

It may have some 'Pearl Ono' in it. It has a lot of the markings, (see attached link). Miltonia (Miltoniopsis) Pearl Ono - Slippertalk Orchid Forum- The best slipper orchid forum for paph, phrag and other lady slipper orchid discussion! 'Pearl Ono' is used in quite a few crosses. It's lovely anyways, but I know it would just be nice to know it's name-even tho that is not likely. Could you contact the vendor? Maybe they only imported a few types??

Getting in touch with the vendor is still one of my options. But Pearl Ono sure looks like a good possibility. I'm perfectly happy to attach that name, if none other becomes available.

Thanks!

It doesn't look like a pure Pearl Ono and of course you can never know for sure unless the vendor confirms but I guess you could call it NOID 'Pearl Ono' x ?? or something like that!
