Label said: Bulbophyllum eberhardtii (=synoniem for B. longiflorum), unfortunately I noted many wrong labels. Looking at pictures it could be B. 'Elizabeth Ann Buckleberry'. Or perhaps another.

What do you think?

Can you post a photo of the entire plant?

Daisy is probably the expert here but I have had several similar looking orchids.

It does look a lot like the 'Elizabeth Ann Buckleberry' but there are a few similar looking hybrids and species. IF it is a species it could be Bulbophyllum sanguineopunctatum. What ever it is it is very nice.

Its not Bulbophyllum eberhardtii/longiflorum as that plant has rounded petal tips. I wondered what the plant looked like because it does look like Elizabeth Ann 'Buckleberry' - the petals should be very long (12 inches long and almost as wide). Another possibility is B. rothschildianum (mine looks like a smaller version of Eliz. Ann) but maybe yours is a young plant.

This is 'Elizabeth Ann Buckleberry'

And current blooms.

It looks to me like E A 'Buckleberry'.

Ok, for now it will be B. rothschildianum. Sorry Daisy: I had not taken a photo of the complete plant. The arrangement was awkward and I knew by head I had that picture in my database anyway... NOT. Memory...

At least it made clear that my doubt on B. longiflorum are sustained, as are my doubts on Elizabeth.

So: THANK YOU all for your help and thoughts!!
