This is a Krull-Smith clone. I am happy with two flowers but had I not snapped-off a growth with a developing sheath, there would be at least 4 flowers. Doh!!!

It's very pretty, and those saturated colors are great. Do the flowers have any scent?

Very good. I think it's got quite a bit of Cattleya dowiana in its background, which should indicate (in theory) that the blooms should have some scent to them.

The flower is about 6 inches (15 cm) across. The plant is about 22 inches (55 cm) tall.
There are 25 species in the family tree with dowiana contributing 39%.See link below:
