Only 3 flowers on this inflorescence. Two inflorescence before this one were eaten. This happened last year also. These must be really tasty. I believe it's roaches. Not to worry though. Two more inflorescence are forming. Fragrance is that Cattleya scent.

Cute yellow blooms. Nice that they are scented too.

Wonderful!

Only three flowers because I think you got females! They last a lot longer than the male flowers.

You are right! How could you tell? The anther cap is white, right?

The length and thickness of the column is a dead giveaway. Males have long slender columns, while females are much stubbier.
