Cattleya tenuis is a Brazilian bifoliate species native of the northeast Brazil. The slender stems can be as high as 70 cm, or more. The flowers are similar to those of C. bicolor, except for the lip with two well developed side lobes embracing the column, that do not exist in pure C. bicolor.

Now that's a spectacular cattleya, Mauro. I now need to become brave enough to sell my home, quit my job, and move into your backyard so that I can stop being envious of your pictures!

Be brave Steve, and come over! But, you need to be brave in double... remember that fierce dragon?
