    Thibaud, going by the colour-pattern and lip shape, this one looks to me more like Sobralia pulcherrima, rather than Sobralia rosea.

    Sobralia pulcherrima is found in Colombia and northern Ecuador.

      Ah yes I reckon you're right! I'll change the ID later today or tomorrow. Thanks for the catch! Posted 6 years ago
