Default Cattleya nobilior var. amaliae 'Dona Laura'
This is a beautiful Cattleya nobilior var. amaliae. The flower has good shape and a wonderful fragrance that reminds me that of anise. This variety, or sub-species for some, has always light lavender, some almost white, flowers. Laura is my grandmother, now a lovely 94 years old Lady!

This is the first time I ever see this species, otherwise I'll mistaken it with walkeriana. Love the branching pattern on the lip.

Mauro, that is one of the most beautiful flowers I have ever seen. Don't know how you did it but I sure would love to follow in your footsteps. I am new to catts and want to do what you have achieved. Thanks for the peak. Gareth
