Cattleya Prada Green in bloom

[NYCorchidman]

This is such a beauty for me.

I loved the name and I like green flowers, so I bought one weeks ago. There were originally two buds, but one blasted.

As the bud grew larger and larger, I was quite surprised as the plant is very small.
It opened to be quite large flower reaching 5in across.
The large frilly lip reminds me of Port of Paradise.
It has a weak but nice sweet citrusy fragrance in the late afternoon (odd time for cattleya I think).
