Default C. aurantiaca × C. maxima
It has characteristic of both parents. The shape looks like maxima and like most crosses of aurantiaca, it has somewhat waxy colors.

Very cool cross. I'd be curious to see if the lip coloration of maxima comes out stronger in the siblings of this one.

Yes, interesting cross. I would have thought it would have orange in it.
