Clicked this interesting Phalaenopsis cultivar here in a Fremont Store in California, which has labellum almost same size as rest of petals and similarly patterned, unlike most other cultivars in which labellum is much reduced and differently coloured. I could find only one similar image on the net:

Perhaps Pankaj and Smita or other colleagues may throw better light, and identify the cultivar
