I saw the flower and couldn't resist buying it! It's a hybrid between Paphiopedilum "Fred's Wonder" and Paphiopedilum "Presidential Moon" which are themselves hybrids of hybrids.

I bought it from Emerald City Orchids in Tacoma, Washington.

It has done that once, good to know. I'm in a rather dry climate so I suspect that I need to not let it get so dry between watering. It doesn't seem to want to send out roots or blooms.
