Got this without a tag. Perhaps flavum in there?
Any guess as to a name?

No name besseae hybrid
- Thread starter bulolo
- Start date
Help Support Slippertalk Orchid Forum:
What is it’s natural spread? (Width - petaltip to petaltip)
My guesses are Eric Young (besseae x longifolium), Lutz Rollke (besseae x boisserianum), Robert Palm (besseae x czerwiakowianum), or the progeny of one of those; but you often seen a more prominent midrib on the petals of those primary crosses. Once you get out of the primary hybrids, it gets harder, but Stephen Manza (who sometimes pops up here), has a good collection of complex besseae hybrid photos on his website, slipperorchids.info .
You might check it out and make your own guess!
(P.S. IMO, definitely some flavum in there)

Don't know what it is but I like it!
My guess would be Phrag. Lutz Rollke (besseae fma flavum x boissierianum).

Obviously not worth cluttering up your collection. I’ll do you a favor and take it off your hands...
Franz Glanz or Olaf Gruss semi flavum.
It looks a little small for a Gegelstein, but could also be a Lutz Rolke. OZ and Woodstream would be the only places you could get a Lutz Rollke Semi flavum.

Thanks for all the suggestions everyone! It does very much look like Lutz Rolke. I really love the sunset tones.
