Cattleya warneri 'MR'
Fine example of this species. The color is actually a bit darker than it appears in the photo. The form is very good for this species. And the perfume... tutti-frutti!
In time, 'MR' is not after Mauro Rosim, but after M R, my wife  .
Here's a close view:

What a wonderful colour! Your wife must be very proud. Does she share your orchid hobby with you?

No, Shirley! She likes orchids, but only in the living room!  |

About as perfect as an orchid can be, I think.

That's stunning, Mauro! And the plant looks nice and compact (for a cattleya). One more species to add to my wish list...
