Nina,

We have that exact same species blooming at OrchidMania (www.orchids.org)
here in San Francisco, but we just have it as "Encyclia sp."

All I can tell you is that it's now a Prosthechea species.

Once I get my pictures back, along with your pictures, I will start
researching the literature I have.

Hello everyone,

I purchased a plant labeled as "Epidendrum lepifolium" from the
collection of the Herrenhausen botanical Garden here in Hannover,
Germany. I can't seem to find that name anywhere.
