I think this should be Cattleya mossiae semialba pincelada. The pincelada refers to the short dash of color at the tips of the ventral sepals, as though a paint brush did a quick stab. It is overall...

I have that cross from Orchids Limited and the buds are starting to rise in the sheath. The tag suggests they did not make the cross. That is an incredibly dark and nice color, sort of like mossiae...

The only subtle correction I would make is that is currently considered all Cattleya and not Laeliocattleya.

I got mine from Orchids Limited, but I am sure they did not mericlone the plant so would have gotten a flash from someone, maybe Hausermann’s. However, I suspect that the plant has been mericloned...
