Hi Grahde, and welcome to the Orchid Board. I don't know the orchid you're looking for, but I suspect someone here will. Good luck finding it!

Welcome to Orchidboard!

Good luck finding photos, I tried putting the names through the RHS database but they don't appear to be registered. Are you certain the names are correctly spelled, or that part of the name isn't a cultivar name? Or this cross and the parents were made by hobby breeders, never got registered and weren't sold far and wide enough for there to be photos available. Is this a plant that you own?

Welcome!

You need to understand a bit more about how orchids are named, to make your searching easier (and communications on the subject clearer in general). Take a look at THIS.

Blc Nacouchie and (what I assume is) Bc. Mount Anderson are old, pink hybrids. Best I can tell, neither cultivar (Blc Nacouchie 'Fantasia' nor Bc. Mount Anderson 'Supreme') has been awarded, but the cross of the two hybrids - both of which are now considered to be rhyncholaeliocattleyas - was registered as Rlc. Joyce Cameron in 1977.

I'm guessing it looks something like this:

So that's why I couldn't find them, there was indeed part of the name which was the cultivar...
