Cattleya ID...anyone? - Orchid Board

I got this orchid long before I realized how much I'd end up loving orchids, and didn't bother to keep the all-important tag...dummy! So I know it's probably impossible to ID, but maybe someone can steer me in the right direction and I'll see a name that rings a bell.

This is an old picture - she's got 2 sheaths popping through so I'll be seeing her again soon...ish...

That's a beautiful lavender cattleya! Unfortunately that's such a common color combination that it's probably impossible to ID. I love all the yellow in the throat. If you don't want to own a NOID, I'd be happy to take it off your hands.

LOL ~ Thank you, but NOOOOO! I'll just have to suffer.

Yeah, when I was Googlin' around there were SO many that were SO similar, I'm not surprised.

She smells real purdy too!!
