Default Need Help with ID - Aerides phairot?

I am tempted but when I look at Flickr/ABPO and see so many beautiful
species that I could grow instead, I will just enjoy viewing other people's
postings. In reality I just don't have enough room to start on hybrids -
the species are vying for the finite space available!

Let's not be a species snob, John. Buy the orchid if you like it. *G*

Thanks Niek, Kathy and Eric for the help in IDing this one. I am
devastated that this is not a species because it is so nice.

Cheers

John

John,

Eric Christenson says it's a hybrid, possibly falcata x flabellata.

Does anyone know the real name of this species? The name on the label
is not recognised by Kew. The grower says that it came from Thailand.
The colours are quite lovely and I would love one of these but not sure
what I should be ordering.
