Cattleya porphyroglossa
It is a seldom grown species. I got a near-blooming plant last year finally it blooms now. |

That's way cool. I really like the contrast between the brightly colored lip and the more subdued sepals and petals. Are the flowers fragrant?

Excellent! You're right about this one not being grown very often, which is too bad because its really nice! Those guys are great!

Beautiful! And 4 flowers!! Very nice!!
I only had one flower last year but mine was recently divided off the mother plant when I got it last year. I'm hoping for more flowers this year. I also have a small seedling but it'll be a few years before I see flowers on that one. Love this species!!
Any chance we can get a pic of your whole plant?
