Cattleya aurantiaca (Bateman ex Lindl.) P.N.Don
So many times used as a parent for the beautiful orange color and the number of flowers. Unfortunately, it is a little bit tall for the modern standards and also not scented.

Great color, indeed! I have one of its 'kids', C. Viola Sanjume, that has the brilliant color without the height.
