This is Neofinetia falcata in bloom. I think it was inspired by a photo of Sonya's plant in bloom. I love the long nectaries. It's native to Japan.

Here are the cute little buds with nectar nubbies.

You managed to bloom several flowers in a spike; with several fans coming out of the mother plant.... It means you gave it the necessary caring for the leaves and the roots to provide enough energy to spike and bloom gracefully as it should. I also loved the colors and hues....the form is definitely a Neofinetia falcata= The Samurai Orchid
