Cattleya "no name brand"
Sadly I don't have the plants name but it flowers for me faithfully each year and the flowers are produce a great show. So I've decided to keep it and name it "my no name brand".
Anyone out there who can point me in the right direct with the plants id, would be most welcome. But sadly nowadays, if you loose the label of any hybrids it is next to impossible to work out it's breeding and back round.

It's gorgeous! It looks a lot like Lc. Puppy Love. But as you said, without a tag, it's not really a good idea to attach a registered name to it, without any real proof of its name.

I think it's lovely and would definitely keep it, named or not.

Looks like a Cattleya Valentine to me (C. warneri x C. loddigesii coerulea). You have a beautiful plant.

Who needs a name when you're THAT gorgeous!? My husband names anything that won't come when you call for it Fred...and all flowers are posies. Funny cuz he doesn't know what a posey is either. Men!!
