This is another of the non-resupinate Bulbo species like Dot's macranthum recently posted. Another species labeled as B baileyi to me is indistinguishable.
If you uncurl the flower it would look pretty much like a macranthum or patens.

I think this orchid ended up at an Ozzy concert to get the devil horn's look. Smell is pleasant. Slightly fermented grapes with spice? The plant is a real rambler on this piece of grape vine. About 36" from top to bottom.


 
Gorgeous!!! What conditions are you giving it (watering, temps etc...). It seems really big.. Well done :clap:

Warm and humid. Leaves are pretty tough, and most of the blooming is on the sunny side, so Cattleya light.
Since its mounted it gets sprayed every day. The photo clipped off the last foot of plant which actually just hangs free of the mount, and starting to loop back up to the mount.
