perciviliana 'Summit' x self
My first species Catt to bloom. I just love it. I think it has good shape, good color, and an extremely beautiful lip. The scent is kinda musky though.

Really beautiful  . I like to have a token Catt. around so got one of these last year. Hasn't bloomed for me yet, though, due to some root issues. It may sound weird, but the reason I bought it was because I thought it was really interesting and cool in a weird sort of way that such a beautiful flower would not have a beautiful fragrance. I recently took a whiff of a couple of these at a show and didn't think the fragrance was THAT bad. To me it smelled kind of "soapy".

Eww...really? Kinda hard to believe that such a beautiful flower has such a smell. 
Soapy, musky, lard...I can't help but wonder what pollinator this plant attracts in the wild.  |
