No idea what it would look like. FWIW, the following information came
from the RHS website
http://www.rhs.org.uk/research/regis...chidsearch.asp
(many thanks to whoever posted this info a year or so ago - it's been
tremendously useful to me!).

D. Lin Dai Yu = D. Siah Ko-Ko x D. lasianthera
D. Siah Ko-Ko = D. Ethel Kawamoto x D. Constance
D. Ethel Kawamoto = D. Shibata x D. discolor
D. Constance = D. discolor x D. lasianthera
D. Shibata = D. taurinum x D. tokai

D. Lee Li Lian = D. Maggie Yong x D. lasianthera
D. Maggie Yong = D. Siah Ko-Ko x D. Bacchus
D. Bacchus = D. taurinum x D. Pauline
D. Pauline = D. phalaenopsis x D. discolor

In D. Pauline, the "D. phalaenopsis" opens a can of worms. At one
stage D. phalaenopsis was the botanical name for the classical
Cooktown orchid now known as D. bigibbum var. superbum. But it was
also used for the very similar D. striaenopsis, found only on Larat in
the Tanimbar group of islands south-west of Irian Jaya. (D.
striaenopsis has also been known as D. phalaenopsis var schroederianum
& D. schroederianum.) The main difference between strieanopsis &
bigibbum superbum is the noticeably larger blooms on striaenopsis. So
D. Pauline is very similar to the natural hybrid D. x superbiens (D.
bigibbum superbum x D. discolor), but probably with larger blooms.
