Laelia tenebrosa 'Iza'
This is a especially large flowered tenebrosa, flowers easily reaching 7-8" across. They are also fragrant by noon! The lip is amazing!

Mauro, you sure are on a roll with the pics....and for that I am greatful because not only are your photographic skills A-1, the flowers are ALWAYS beautiful. You bring something very special to this board for all of us to share....flowers that many of us, well maybe only me, would otherwise never see or know exist...what a wonderful effort you make to share with all of us.....  |

Thanks, Howard! It is my pleasure to share. Unlike the movie, orchids are not for my eyes only! |

mauro,
 That is one of the most amazing tenebrosas I have ever seen. 
The color is outstanding, and the petals are so wide that they provide a fullness I have never seen in this species.
Thanks for sharing this one with us.  |
