Marc,

Thank you for your response!  Yes, it is Restrepia.  The tag said that it was Species form Columbia.  This is a large flower (2")  coming from under the base of the  leaf and held slightly above.  The inflorescence is about  3" long. I have pictures of the flower and plant linked below. It's a very long lasting flower and there are a few buds left to open. I can get some decent macro shots of the lip area, I just haven't done that yet.

Thank you again!

Liana -

Depending on the plant there are many people out there that can help. There are several Facebook Forums and groups like the Orchid Source Froum that you can post an image and have any number of people help with identifications. I have also found that websites like Picasa and Flickr have groups of 'experts' from around the world that are willing to contribute and help with IDs on plants. Do you know the genus at least?

Let's start there and see.

Feel free to email me an image of the plant and maybe I can help with the ID.

Sincerely

Marc
