Default Guarianthe aurantiaca!
I love this plant! Blooms like clockwork every spring! Its a bit early this year, but I think it has something to do with being grown in a better climate now. The plant REALLY needs to be repotted, but that can wait till the blooms fade. For now, I'll just enjoy it! And for the first time, I can detect a faint and very unique fragrance... smells like a humid greenhouse with a touch of sweetness. (does that make sense?!) I also threw in a photo of Phal. aphrodite... wrong forum, but I really like the picture!

Beautiful, the color is amazing! At first I was wondering what orchid this was when i read the title, I forgot that a lot of plants are no longer Cattleya....

From the surface of the pot, it stands about 18" tall... not the biggest orchid in the world, but it is developing into a nice clump!
