One of my favorites!
How often does yours bloom for you?
I bought one in bloom a few years back, then it grew like weed but never flowered for me.
So I said bye bye.
It is such a beautiful flower with great fragrance to boot!

It's interesting that you say that because several of my South Florida friends have said that their's don't bloom either. Mine has always bloomed every summer. It also tries to bloom a second time during winter but those buds always fail.

I guess I got a dud.
It was so puzzling that it grew so well, too well almost, but never flowered again.
Not even a sheath.
I grew it the same way as my other large cattleyas, all of which I rebloomed.
