Is this an orchid native to Brazil? I love it. The pouch is
speckled and wonderful. The red petals ain't bad either.

Yes it is native to Brazil in Central Plateaux in Chapada dos Veadeiros , state of Goiás. It was confused with Phragmipedium vittatum as an attached scan of an old book of orchids(Pabst &Dungs) illustration made by Margaret M.

Thank you for the additional information. I really like this
Phrag., but I've never seen it offered here in the states.
