Cattleya mossiae
Finally this one bloomed during the normal C. mossiae season. Last year it bloomed in August. Which was fine with me since I just got back from spending 1.5 years in Doha. It was originally sold to me as a newly imported coerulea but I don't think it is. But as a plus to this one the blooms range from 7 to 8 inches.
