Default Cattleya dowiana enters the house!

Despite the fried plants, this C. dowiana determined to flower. The sheath was badly burned by the high dose UV's - brown on one side, green on the other, but I could feel the buds developing inside. It soon became black and leathery, so I cut off the top to be sure the buds didn't get trapped inside.

Great coloring in the buds has developed in the last couple of days.
