Unknown Catt #1 in bloom
 
4 Attachment(s)
Long story short: this summer I adopted a few Catts and Vandas (or at least members of the respective alliances), and I have no idea what they are due to the lack or misplacement of tags. Now, after years of apparently not blooming, at least one Catt has bloomed under my care. Can anybody ID it? Oh, and from what I heard, all of the adopted plants are inter-genus hybrids (if that helps).

First two pics were taken the 19th & 20th at my house and the last two were taken today in my residence hall.

The yellow coloration and little spot on the lip are indicative of Blc. Goldenzelle 'Lemon Chiffon'. The shape is kind of similar, too....hard to say for sure. Very beautiful, though!Google Image Result for http://www.sdahldtp.com/goldzlemon.jpg

Oooh... yes, it looks really close to that. Thanks.
However, the one thing that is significantly different are the purple edges on the labellum. *Note that they don't appear till later into the bloom.

It may have Goldenzelle in it's parentage.

If it does, it looks like it was the more dominant of the two plants.
I am willing to put faith in it being primarily a Goldenzelle. Again, thanks.
Now for the Vandas and two other Catts to bloom.
