Default Unnamed Cattleya

Hello Everybody I have a Cattleya that is blooming for me right now but I don't have a name for it.I know it won't be easy to recognize it but maybe someone has the same one and knows the name.From the lemony scent and the look of this Catt I know there is a Rchyncholaelia Digbyana in it.I got it many years ago from my friend.Thanks a lot.

ditto what Rosie said - very nice! I can't help with the i.d. either - tho with that wonderful lip perhaps there is some Rhyncholaelia digbyana in it's background. Idk - I'm far from an expert, but that was the first thing I thought of looking at your pix.

The flower looks a little too big and frilly for Angel Lace. It has the appearance of one of the big labiata type catts crossed with digbyana, but there are several species and probably hundreds of hybrids that could be that big labiata type, and really no way of being sure.

Thank you very much for all help.My friend from Orchid society was trying to help me and took my Cattleya to people who are experts in recognizing and the closest guess is Bc Nacouchee x Digbyana it is a very old cross from 1952
