Default Need Help With Identity

I got this cute little rupiculous laelia on eBay about a year ago and I lost the tag. The only white flowering rupiculous laelia that I know of is L. fournieri. This plant is growing in a 2" clay pot and is only about two inches tall. It has buds showing in another in-mature growth. It's blooming characteristic seems to be to produce flowers on a new growth before it matures. Hope you can help identify it.

I've done some research on this one Jerry & I believe the name L. fournieri to be correct. If anything you plant seems to be a clearer white than most examples I found & descriptions. Probably a better clone.

The plant, growth pattern and flowers sure look like my L. fournieri.

Thanks to everyone. I am going to consider my plant to be Laelia Fournieri.
