Cattleya Summer Spots is Summer Stars x aclandiae. It is a small plant (a bit bigger than a miniature) and I grow it int/warm under bright light. Potted in CHC and perlite.

Don't tell me its a stinker? It has stinker colors, except for the lip. Nice flower by the way!

Usually plants with brown colors, or dark as in black, or muddy colors, or colors that make the flower resemble dead flesh are stinky flowers. The colors help to convince flies that they are heading for a good egg deposition site, but are in fact being duped into pollinating a flower.
