Looking for: Spanish Dancer 'Harlequin'
 
Anyone know where I can get one? I'm smitten with it.

Do you have a link to a photo of it?
BigLeaf Orchids has a Spanish Dance, but not the 'Harlequin' one, so I don't know if it looks similar or not.

I love the clean lines and the haphazard way of the coloration. It's like the flowers are confused, so they went half purple, half white.

I'm looking and looking (and normally I'm pretty good at digging stuff up on internet) but I'm not finding anything, not even other photos of it. I'm thinking that this might be just a freak of nature, or the author of the photo you linked gave this unique Spanish Dancer the 'harlequin' name.

I haven't had any luck either, but I first discovered it in a book I got from the library. When I get home I'll see if I can find more info on it-- its an actual hybrid but for whatever reason I cannot find it on the net either.

Is this the book page? Bizarre and beguiling orchids - ENTP.org (Scroll about 3/4 of the way down for it)

It could be... I'm not sure. I emailed a vendor I use to see if they have any idea where this hybrid could be found.
