With so many name changes, I am so much confused. Yes this is Phaius flavus, now known as Calanthe woodfordii.

Its a good idea not to collect wild orchids. This specially is so rare.

Thanks a lot for sharing.

Best regards

Pankaj

Thank you Dr. Kumar. I bought this plant at a nursery in Kalimpong.
