Hi Gary,
It's Ansellia africana.
A pity it is such an awful colour, it's a beautiful epiphytic orchid with yellow petals with more or less brown spots. Hence the common name 'Leopard Orchid'.

Thank you Maddy.Looks rather deep green ,at least on
my monitor. Always found green flowers interesting maybe because they are so unusual....Thanks again

| Hey Maddy I really like the green petals. Now you disappoint us all and tell us they are actually yellow with brown spots. |
