This is one of my all time favorite primary crosses. I've never seen this clone of it before, and it is just MAGNIFICENT! Well done.
P.S. I belive is it an Lc., but with all the name changes, I could be totally wrong. LOL

The official registration is simply Cattleya Canhamiana now, or you could go with Sc. if you prefer. "L" purpurata is either a Cattleya or Sophronitis in current taxonomy, not a Laelia.
A beautiful display of huge flowers, no matter what one calls it. Nice growing!

Laelia Canhamaniana
Do a little "Photoshopping" on the leaves and submit it for the calendar competition.

Hello that would be nice and I was thinking about it because leaves don't look good but I don't know how to do it.

That's an awesome shade of lilac-blue. And I love the contrasting yellow throat. |
