I think this a hybrid of Lycaste tricolor.

Thanks a lot …

I found one Lycaste oculata on the Column.

Can you check and validate?

Never heard such name before. Cant find either.

Thanks … Found this on the link…..

This name is not on the international database somehow.

Could the name be spelt as Lycaste occulta?

I found this link of Atlanta Botanical Garden with names against all the pictures.

Lycaste occulta, is indeed a name. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for validating.

So this is Lycaste occulta and not a hybrid of Lycaste tricolor.

Am I understanding correctly?

Yes not a hybrid.
