Cattleya trianae
For me, it lacks a little substance but maybe this is because it is flowering for the first time on a young plant still. Anyway, the lips is really big.

Mauro, I always get a smile out of your humble, self-effacing comments when your 'chids are usually among the most gorgeous plants on the OB.

The plant is still young, Rosie and will grow a little more, but you are right, trianaes are known for their large flowers!!
