thank you!
I really like it too, it seems very healthy but slightly congested in its densely packed sphagnum moss so I cut the vinyl container that it was in and let it hang out in the open in a strawberry basket with some bark chips at the bottom so it can air out until its ready to be potted up!

Nice!
I have a hybrid that looks exactly like this.
Smell it during the day. Mine smells like lemons.
Got mine at Trader Joe's.

Although some guesses as to the name may pop up, unless you can find the original seller or breeder, it will forever be a NoID.
That said, based on the flower form, I would guess that one of the parents was either Phal. parishii or Phal lobbii.

I saw a whole bunch of these a couple of weeks ago in a greenhouse near Half Moon Bay CA. I thought they were charming, but none of them had tags. The owner had no clue what they were and didn't seem to care much. I left it since I don't buy NOIDs anymore.
I agree with Paul that there is most likely lobbii or parishii in it's background because of the shape of the lip. I would add heiroglyphica or inscriptiosis because of the markings.

Really pretty.
It does have quite a strong influence of something like lobbii or parishii, I thought of parishii as soon as I saw it.

Maybe a pinch of tetrapsis thrown in somewhere?

The closest thing I could find was this bastianii x parishi on Phalaenopsis Mini Princess
Still doesn't quite fit though. Oh well. Its neat anyway and if it's unique thats cooler to me even if it's noid.
Thanks for all your help!
