Default C. Walkeriana X C. Portia - first bloom
I had only two buds but for the first time a pretty little flower. Beautiful blue, with darker lip and white throat.
Flower about 3 1/2", and fragrant. Enjoy! P.S. Thanks Wanda for the rating!!!!

It's a nice looking cattleya. Is it small-sized?

You let me curious about this cross... both parents are very common here, but I didn't know that they had been crossed... The resulting flower is very nice! I figure out that the plant is relatively tall because of C. Portia, right?

Mauro - I guess one would think so with one parent being Portia however, she is not. From the rim of the pot to top of pseudobulb is about 8-8 1/2".
