My plant came labeled as such. var prinzii
Currently we do not call more varieties of orchids when derived from something that does not immediately identify which color variation we are talking about.
Cattleya amethystoglossa was discovered in southern Bahia in 1856 and was rated by Reichenbach f. Prinzi as Cattleya guttata var.
The answers above have been cited in the net.
But according to an orchid friend, I'll take your clarification about
:
Var.: Prinzii - smaller flowers but more numerous, greenish-yellow color. Flowering in February / March.
