This is a division I received in a trade with our friend Royal, a couple months ago. Maybe this thread will make him post a picture of the bigger plant that this came from, if he already hasn't. My allergies have been acting up, so I can't smell it, but Royal says it smells like spicy cat pee!
Beautiful flowers. You sure can see the Laelia Albida influence.
Yes, Jerry, and that lovely C. bowringiana color! Since that is now Guarianthe, I guess this would technically be Laelianthe Bowri-Albida.....or something!
My Cattleya ( Guarianthe) Bowringiana just finished blooming. It had about a dozen large clusters of flowers. I sure wish I could find a good home for it because it has gotten too large for my greenhouse. It is growing in a ten inch pot and is about two feet tall and two and a half feet wide.

What do you want for it, I've got just the spot for it!
Let me send you a picture tomorrow and you can make me an offer.
I am willing to sell it for a reasonable price. The only problem would be the postage because the plant is large.
