Cattleya x mesquitae
This is a piece of a plant I posted a few weeks ago. It is planted in sphagnum with very good results. The interesting is that, though the two pieces are grown together and the same way, this one opened way darker than the previous.

Here is that past thread you posted, Mauro 
http://www.orchidboard.com/community...c-menezes.html
and as you described -
"Nice natural hybrid between Cattleya walkeriana and Cattleya nobilior as recently described as 1996." |

Lovely plant, Mauro! I like this and all the other lovely pictures that you post of your cattleyas.
Just a question though, how large is your collection anyways? I'm really curious! |
