L. Pumila and One of its Hybrids
 
This is L. pumila 'SanBar Sparkler' and Lc. 'Caitlin Joan'. I love them both. The Lc. Cross is two thirds pumila and one third C. 'Bow Bells'. Bow Bells was a very famous white Cattleya that won a lot of awards. This Lc. has a heavenly sweet and spicy scent during the day and has bloomed three times. Lip on pumila never really opened properly and stayed kind of puckered with no scent. I only had it 10 weeks and wonder if it was transition shock. Anyone have a similar experience?

Here's L. pumila with ruler so you can see size and also puckered lip.
