Looks like Cirila Alca... but if you cannot get first hand info from the breeder it is better to keep it as a NOID. Who is making hybrids without labels in Perú?
 
Thanks for the answers. I ask Alfredo Manrique and he dont know which one it is. I might actually go to Manuel Arias (he lives 8 blocks from my home ) after next bloom opens.

Well how to explain... theres a lot of orchid cultivators in the jungle of Peru...nothing formal just people doing there own operations. They are most local farmers that see oportunity to get more money selling orchids that they found out there in nature. Some of them also get hybrids that have been stolen or sold from main breeders (such as Manuel Arias, he got stole apparently a big flask quantity some years ago) . So this people buy the no ID hybrids and sell them when they bloom in the famous (or infamous)Achos flower Market mainly or some by internet. Sooo thats how sometimes you get a NOID beautiful Phrag cross.

Thanks... it explains a lot of things... Alfredo also got stoled few years ago. I have seen recently some PK hybrids from Perú without labels.
 
The worst part of the history is that the plants and flasks stolen can be tracked and now the plants are growing and flowering in "nurseries" in the jungle that cannot produce them. If I am right Manolo suited one of this guys who was selling his hybrids and lost...!
