Question Spotted while hiking in Florida, ID help please!

Hi all,

I first spotted this orchid about 6 months ago, and I've continued to hike to this spot periodically to check for blooms. Well today was my lucky day, I finally caught it in bloom! The flowers had a very faint sweet scent. The foliage is grassy with no pseudobulbs, and the plant also had a seed pod. It was growing on a dead pine tree in full sun. I've been pouring over lists of native Florida orchids and haven't had any luck with an ID. Someone suggested a type of encyclia, and the flower shape does vaguely remind me of encyclia tampensis, a common native orchid in my area. Can anyone help me figure out what this beauty is? Thanks in advance
