Cattleya iricolor
Beautiful and strongly fragrant! Just a few flowers in this piece because I had to divide the large specimen I had.

When I saw the smaller pic, I thought - ok, kinda spindly looking. . but when I opened the pictures to see the bigger view - WOW!! That's gorgeous!! What a very pleasant surprise, almost looks like a fine porcelain sculpture!

Those are really pretty, Mauro. one of these days I'm going to get one just so that I can experience the scent of the blooms for myself and determine whether or not its reputation for wonderful fragrance is deserved.

Most part of the day the fragrance is very good, STeve. But, I've noticed that it varies a little, especially in the morning, when it is, say... a little less wonderful

Very good choice, Nick! The adult plant can be a little tall (30-40cm), but the flowers and their scent make it very desirable, for sure!!
