Got this classic Cattleya hybrid last September out of the estate of a former member, without tag. My presumption is one of the Lc. Irene Finney clones. Flowering right now, broad lip, sweet fragrance. What do you think?
Thanks for your help. Now I tend to think it is Lc. Drumbeat 'Heritage' for the genetic slight streaky bleaching on both lower sepals. But I must be careful not to overinterpret.
I think that even assuming you can ID a hybrid from its flower is taking it too far.
There are just SO many that look similar, there is a great deal of variation within a cross, and culture also affected appearance, so how could you possibly know for sure?
