Absolutely stunning! Who are its parents? What are the basic genera in the parentage?

I'm afraid I don't know- Lctna is the abbreviation for laeliocatonia which is Broughtonia, Cattlyea and Laelia.
I bought it at my local orchid society in bloom over a year ago, and now it has rebloomed for me.:)
The tag says Lctna Quests Sexy Eyes Paradise. I don't have Orchid Wiz, so I don't have a means to look it up.
I keep meaning to stick to species, but then a flower like this hooks me.:evil:

Connie I might be able to find out the parentage for you. I believe that this plant was grown by Quest Orchids which is a local nursery and I know the owners. By the way the blooms look awesome !!!!

Fantastic!
I still don't understand how hybrids are named/registered. It seems to be more complicated than thoroughbred race horses or champion dog breeds...:waving
