Phal. braceana?
 
I bought this as a braceana, but the leaf shape on mine looks very different from the pictures I can find of this species and its relative, taenialis. Any thoughts? The largest leaf was round, not elongated, before the cut was made.

I believe you'll need to wait until it flowers.

This one is near blooming size. Wonder how many very small Phal species there are with leaves this shape.

Here is a picture of mine when it first bloomed - leaves are slightly different.

Your leaves are slightly different but the blooms should be a better way to judge if it is a braceana, but it is now considered taenialis.

That's a spectacular bloom show, Brooke. Thanks for your response and the pictures.
