That's not Cochleanthes amazonica.
That's a much rarer plant, Cochleanthes flabelliformis.

Beautiful plant! A real treat to get something so neat by accident. I think they're both well worth growing...

Yep, definitely a fabelliformis. That's a neat plant you've got there.
I think this is one of the species of Cochleanthes that was moved to the new genus Warzewiczella. I still call these Cochleanthes, though (I hate the new name).
