Cattleya luteola *MINI*
The flower is a little greener than I'd like, but still nice, and fragrant, though kinda like new linoleum on a hot day...
slow grower though, not sure if I've got it warm enough for it's liking.

Another of my favorites. Mine smells like warm vinyl to me as well. Everyone should have a luteola; especially those who are short on space. It's a mini and grows under lower light than most Cattleyas. It also flowers on each new mature growth...I get flowers 2, sometimes three times a year. I think yours has a bigger flower than mine. It's a very nice one...good growing!

They're tiny as Catts go, about 9" tall. I guess it's too big to be a mini, but it's definately dwarf. Mine's at 5 mature pseudobulbs, a veritable baby.
