Thanks for identifying that one. I thought it had some differences to the Leopard but wasn’t sure. What are the main differences to separate them please.
D. nigromontana is generally a flatter flower with more rounded petals and dorsal sepal. It also flowers earlier.
D. sulphurea has a more pointed labellum, dorsal sepals and petals. The dorsal sepal also has two prominent spots on the back. I personally think D. sulphurea resembles a greyhound wearing a long hat.
