Default Very dark Cattleya leopoldii
A dark jewel this one! Extremely fragrant, waxy flowers! I've been growing this for long and the plant never gets higher than 40-45 cm, which is a small size for a leopoldii.

Well, I kinda have a 'leopoldarium' Steve! I love this species, the perfume and the large crown of flowers the plants have are amazing, so I amassed a collection of more or less 40 of them.

It truly is lovely, Mauro, I don't blame you for collecting them.
