Cattleya nobilor
I know that many people prefer walkeriana to nobilior, but I think that they both have their place because each have unique charms. This one has a great fragrance in the morning too.

That is stunning. Congratulations. Would you mind providing some cultural information, please (especially regarding temperature ranges and seasonal differences in care)? Thank you.

Please accept my apology for not getting back to you sooner.
I grow it like most other cattleyas: 60F at night in winter with days in the 70'sF, summer temps. are ~ 10F higher; it drys out after every watering;"weakly weekly" fertilizer;the light comes from a T5 bulb year-round and the plant is 12 inches from a 4-light fixture that is 4 feet long.
