Enjoy

Besides being big, beautiful, AND fragrant, I don't have a clue. Bravo on the save.

That's magnificent! 
It looks familiar but I can't come up with what the name might be.

I agree with Ramon - very mossiae var. alba-like in form and color
Gorgeous! 
Check out Mauro's C. mossiae var alba here - Cattleya mossiae var. alba
Seems like the lip on yours is more floofy

Wow, Thanks Ramon and Dorthy. I think you ID it. I really did not have much hope of getting a name for it. But after viewing pics of mossiae var. alba I really thing that is it.
Here is a link to a pic of mossiae var. alba. I can't tell any difference.
Cattleya mossiae var. alba at Santa Barbara Orchid Estate
Thanks again. You guys are great.

Here is a pic I borrowed from a vendor of mossiae var. alba. I can't tell any difference.
Thanks again. You guys are great.

Hi Bill
What vendor did you "borrow" that pic from?
Rather than posting the picture alone, it's always best to post a link to the page the picture came from.
Thanks
