Miltonidium Cindy 'Pinky Lee'
Formerly Vuylstekeara. I've been waiting a long time for this. I got the plant about two years ago, but it was in poor health when it arrived. It had almost no roots and the pseudobulbs were quite shriveled. It took about a year to grow some new roots, then the new growth started, and that took another year to mature, but here it is finally in bloom 😁

Thanks guys! You're all so nice And yes, the blooms are quite large for this type of orchid. They're about 4 inches. A lot of my Oncidium intergenerics bloom twice a year, and the winter blooms usually have much better color than the summer blooms. I'm curious to see if this one will be a twice a year bloomer, and if so, then if the color on the winter blooms is even better, although I like it very much just like it is now.

Congratulations on nursing it back to health and getting it to flower! The blooms are well worth the wait.
