Orchids With Imbricate Leaves?
 
I really have developed a thing for orchids with imbricate foliage as is common in the genus Lockhartia. I have an unidentified Oberonia with such foliage, and I'm currently in the process of getting a Dendrobium reflexipetalum, which I was quite surprised to discover! Are there any other orchids besides those I've mentioned that have this type of foliage? Thanks!

One might argue that all phalaenopsis, paphiopedilum and phragmipedium leaves are imbricate, as that's defined as "overlapping regularly", but if you are really meaning "tightly" imbricate, take a look at Den anceps.

That's what I'm talking about! Thanks Ray!
