Hello everybody !

It was written Encyclia randii on it. It also looks like Encyclia cordigera...
Do you know what is it ? It smells the lily of the valley.

I would be thinking, Encyclia is correct & the whole name being correct actually.

Pretty sure it's a hybrid.

Could involve:
cordigera
randii
phoenicea
gracilis

But cordigera looks different for about every flower part. Lip shap, the lobes of the lip and they way they are bent and also the bent to the sepals and petals is different and they are darker then any I've seen (especially on a non rosea).

I would not label it Enc. cordigera.
