Here is a photo of my first orchid, which has finally re-bloomed after two years. Dos anybody have any idea what it's parents might have been? The foliage is shiny, smooth and faintly mottled.

It'll be pretty much impossible to tell for sure.

I'd imagine it has fairrieanum and callosum in it, at least.

Looks very nice, too!

it is a Maudiae-type x fairrieanum. the exact identity of the non-fairrieanum parent is impossible to tell if you ask me. but the color is very nice.
