Wow, congrats! A very happy purpurata! Laelia (now 'Hadrolaelia', 'Sophronitis' or 'Brasilaelia', you choose!) purpurata are usually very large plants, specially the "type" ones! I have a "carnea" but not so big, your plant shows a very good appearance!

Very nice, looks like the petals are very flat - very good.
