I am looking at it again.
Now I learned some time ago that the blooms on ibaguense and also radicans are resupinate, while those belonging to the secundum type complex are non-resupinate. That means when you look at an individual bloom, the column and lip would face upwards on secundum, while while facing downwards on ibaguense and also on radicans. Yours faces upwards - looking at the cute orange yellow lip, it is definitely up. That means it is not ibaguense.
