C Celia...what a show!
Slowly but surely...here she comes!
This is her progress up till now...by the end of the day she should be fully open and the second bud is starting to open now too!

Nice blooms! Is it a Cattleya hybrid? But that lip reminds me of digbiana

I answered that post too quickly!
The white plant in the background is a white Cattleya from Shannon's Orchids, #248 in their books...I may or may not get the name sometime soon
