I am new to orchids and was reading some information on them and came across a picture of one I really like. It is on this page: https://www.aos.org/Default.aspx?id=86

It says Phalaenopsis on the page but I didn't think their leaves looked like that and I didn't think they made so many flowers.

Definitely a phal. Some phals, like schilleriana and Stuartiana have patterned leaves.

I agree with Leafmite, it is Phalaenopsis schilleriana (or hybrids with its influence). It is a well grown plant, so they can make lots of flowers. There are much much bigger specimen of P. schilleriana. It is originally from Phillipines, and it is pretty easy to get. It is a fairly easy species to grow, too.

My first thought was Phalaenopsis schilleriana as well.
