Unidentified Florida Native In My Garden

[IncurablePlantHead]

I don't know for sure if its a Florida Native, but I was told it was when I received it about 2 yrs ago. It bloomed this year in late spring. I snapped a couple of shots and forgot about. Now it's bothering me for identification. Anybody know it? The vegetative part of the plant, not photographed, has strapped leaves with a pronounced pseudobulb. It is growing at the base of a natve palm, Thrinax morrisii.

I've added a pic of the actual plant.

NO CLUE BUT GORGEOUS, hope someone will identify, would love to get this one and grow it at my balcony in Miami:-)

It looks like one of the Eulophias to me, which one I am not sure though...

Cyrtopodium poliphyllum?

I have Cyrtopodium polyphyllum,and this is not it. Eulophia looks somewhat promising, but nothing I can find really matches....quite a mystery so far. Then someone will reply....oh thats so and so and that will be the end of that.

There are green forms of Eulophia alta; I wonder if this is one of those..?

Yes, I was looking at that possibility too. I have also heard of a green form of alta. Supposedly, this is a seedling of a plant found at Royal Palm in the everglades. Funny I remember these little details and not the name of the plant. I may have to search out the guy I got it from, a very knowledgeable orchidist.....not sure where he hangs these days.
