Cattleya intermedia

It looks much better in person than in an image. The blooms look like they're carved of wax.

Unusual striata form !

Beautiful! Is this a large plant when mature? I have 3 seedlings but not really sure when to expect them to bloom.

Very nice. What cultivar? I have intermedia alba Hoyt which is pure white and also a coruela variety. They are very reliable bloomers. I like your colors here.

This one has pseudobulbs that are about 14 inches long. Not too big, but it loves to let its growths sprawl so it takes up more space than you would think.

I didn't get a cultivar name when I bought it. It was from a SF Bay area grower who was selling off his excess on EBay. I alssume that it's a cultivar that the growers out there might know. If any have a guess, I'd love to know.
