Cattleya amethystoglossa Linden & Rchb.f. ex R.Warner
This is flowering for the first time, a nice surprise the whitish background as well as the sepals tips with a purplish zone. At first I thought the purple tips could be due to flacid tissue, but a close examination showed that that was not the case. Anyway, let's see if the trait repeats in the next flowering seasons.

Very Nice. I love the speckles, they really make the orchid pop! Nice combination!

That is really nice! Hopefully those purple tips will stick around next year. I can't recall seeing other plants of this species with purple tips. Could this be a future show winner for you?
