Default Catt gaskeliiana???

Do you guys think that this is a Cattleya gaskelliana?

It has a lovely lilac color and a very nice scent.

Wanda, it looks like gaskelliana to me too--or possibly mossiae. Did it flower immediately after it completed its new growth, without any rest? If so, then there's a good chance that it's gaskelliana. If it made its new growths last fall, produced a sheath and then rested for a while before it flowered, it might be mossiae--although we're kind of outside the timeframe when mossiae usually flowers (early to mid spring). The flowers of both species are highly fragrant, but my bet would be that you've got gaskelliana (which also is usually a spring bloomer). Very beautiful flowers on your plant. Congratulations.

Steve

Thanks Steve. It did flower immediately after it completed it's new growth. So gaskelliana it is.

Looks like a gaskelliana to me, too. Here is a picture of my gaskelliana for reference:



Best Regards,
