Renanthera elongata ( I think )
 (Oh my Dendrobium antennatum photobombed it)
Bought it last October from a fair as a an unbloomed Bornean Renanthera. The seller only have a very blurry photo of the flower and I ended up buying it out of curiosity.
The pot contained 3plants. The tip of the smallest plant dried up and stopped growing but the other two grow happily and bloomed
An attempt to photographed the flower

Checking a few listings, elongata looks good (and appropriate). Nice plant, if you have room.

 leave it to a Den to photo bomb. You do have some different orchids. Love the bright color.

Even the weed in the pot looks good.
