The spots make this one

Unfortunately YB was dead after two weeks when I bought it. Some kind of virus.

Oh no! That's such a pity! :( I hope you will find a new one. I have also been looking for this cross, but this year no orchid nursery here in Europe seem to have it. Hopefully next year there will be more available again.

Really? It looks so healthy in the pictures. I'm so sorry for you.

Lucke has got in stock but no like this flower form. Only tiny petals. This one was different from other YB. I have never seen any YB like this before :( This form was from Karge. I paid more money for this one than "ordinary" YB. If I find YB like this I will buy it again. I want to have both :)

Every leaf to came off from bulb and turn into black. Nothing was in pot. No rots, no bulbs, no leaves.

Hopefully you got a refund.
I didn't know there were variations of this cross. I hope we will see it for sale again.

Unfortunately not. I didn't get a refund.
I paid more money because my vendor told me that this was better cross. I thought that it's mean that the plant had more growths than other. I was wrong because my one of my friend bought YB from the same vendor and she got tiny petals form and my second friend got YB like this and it was dead too. So I think all of this variation was ill.
I found photos :)

I don't know what that is, but it looks terrible! :(

It sure does. Black rot :dunno: what a shame.

If they all died, they were probably infected at the vendor's greenhouse.

Black rot organisms spread in water. You must clean up very carefully after that. Use 10% household bleach solution. Do not get water from one plant into another plant. Even a splash can carry the spores.

Nothing happend to my plants till today. I have never had black rot in my collection after that. I never use the same water for all plants. Everyone is watering by new fresh water.

I think the same that problem was in vendor's greenhouse.

Oh how beautiful :D

also we have the same birthday, august 4.

So cool! :D
