Default Rhynchostylis retusa
I reacquired this species last year, and grow it in a greenhouse together with Paphs, Catts and an assortment of other Orchids. It has now rewarded me with two good size flower spikes, which certainly show why this is one of the plants called 'fox tail orchids'.

I invite someone with time on their hands to try to count the number of individual flowers.
