Bc Ann Hamilton
Bc Ann Hamilton (Brassavola nodosa. Maj x Remar. Cattleya aclandiae) from Mickeys Orchids. I love the color, and it is vigorous grower, and blooms many times a year, First 2 buds opened now, another 6 on the way.

Many thanks everyone, and yes, it smells like very light women perfume, especially at night!

Clarification...
I think we are looking at Bc. Anne (with an e) Hamilton (B. nodosa x C. violacea). The appearance is about right for that cross.
There is no registration for Ann (without an e) Hamilton, and there is no evidence that C. aclandiae is involved here.
I like nodosa hybrids, but after a while they all start to look the same. This one has a particularly graceful form and pleasing color though.

The plant comes from the grower here in Ft. Lauderdale, he is very popular among Florida growers for his crosses, the name says Ann, just attaching the link. I do agree, there is so many crosses, and after the while they all look similar, I have only one, and I keep this one for it's nice color :-)
