It is in the Cattleya alliance family. There is no encyclia in the plant. Keep on doing what you're doin and flower it. Then ask everyone again because you have such a great plant from your rescue!

The purple coloration can change dramatically and might probably due to incorrect growth and fertilizer ( high phosphorus)/culture or too high of light--or all of those. Might be due to the genera as some of the laelia do exhibit red in the leaves. it is not L. rubescens. The attached photo is L. rubescens in spike last month in our greenhouse.
