Identification Help

Perhaps I can get some help with this orchids identification. I had it a long time but it died. It was my wifes favorite and I'm trying to replace it. Can anyone help?

Question about additive to fertilizer

I was at a local show yesterday and I heard something about a new thing called Inoculaid. I guess you add it to your plants and its sort of a wonder food. Anyone heard of or has anyone used this?
