Thanks for the compliments guys and gals. I went by there yesterday to pick up my chairs and tables loaned for their Xmas party, and only spoke with Tom. He was happy to hear of your kind words.

I go with Polka. Itīs trianae time right now, and A.C. Burrage is widespread. I also have several divisions.
But a more complex semialba-hybrid is possible as well.

is that one big plant or a bunch of them planted together?
If one plant, how long does cattleya take to reach that size?

It's one big plant. I'd guess its about 10 yrs old or more. The thing ab out theses, is once the get somewhat big, the get bigger exponentially fast. New leads start (all the flowers are new leads) so next year it will have many more.

I stopped by monday to help wrap the structures up for the cold front coming, and spied 3 leads growing on the back of the mount. I asked for a division and was told... MAYBE. Prolly not, but it would be nice... heh heh!!!
