Default C. Porcia 'Cannizaro'

I displayed this plant at the Honolulu Orchid Society Show this past weekend. The plant won the Best Cattleya in Show Trophy and the Best in Show Trophy. The plant has five inflorescences (the sixth broke off from the weight of the flowers.) The plant is 35 inches tall (top of media to tallest flower).[ATTACH]20450[/ATTACH

Wow, 6 inflorescences in total. Amazing. Do you have any pics of the plant itself?
