Default Another Hurricane Casualty
This is another tagless orchid, a casualty of the '05 hurricane in Florida, USA. It has two inflorescence with three open blooms on one, and two fully developed buds on the other. The developed inflorescence has three blossom, with one being considerably different from the other two. Can anyone suggest a name for this sweet smelling Cattleya?

Since it's a NOID and a casaulity out of the hurricane - you can name it Cattleya NOID 'Blown Away'
It surely blows me away ...

It has been thus named! Thanx for the excellent suggestion Dorothy. )

Also note the deformed flower, which I ignorantly thought was a male. Silly me, as I was informed Cats do not have male flowers.

Not sure, but I think my Cat may be monoecious, not hermaphroditic?
