:) It's beautiful!
Yes it is in the cattleya alliance. I am not sure what it is though

From the shape of the flower, I'd say an Epicattleya...certainly there is Encyclia in the make-up, along with Cattleya, but there might be Laelia, Sophronitis or even Brassovola there as well!

I can't help you with ID, but I can confirm that it is a cattleya or a hybrid with cattleya in it. Lovely colour!

Todd, Im sure you are right on at least one of those guesses. :lol:
Very beautiful color though!!! Sometimes getting an ID on your NOID is half the fun.
