Guarianthe (Cattleya) aurantiaca
In Dec 2017 or Jan 2018, I purchased 10 plugs. Over the last two years, I have sold 9 of them. The one I kept for my own collection has 3 spikes (on plant in a 4.1/2" clay pot) on pseudobulbs about 6" tall.
The first spike just started to open when I was in the greenhouse on Saturday. Turns out to be a very nicely spotted flower.
