Default Cattleya nobilior var. amaliae 'Dona Laura'

This is one of my best Cattleya nobilior. The form is good, the color too. The flowers have an intoxicating anise perfume that makes me keep my nose glued to them. This is a variety of clear lavender color, very prized and grown here. Good clones are not cheap and most of them end in Japan (they can afford to pay, in fact, money seems not to be a problem for them!!). BTW, Dona Laura is my grandma, a lovely 92-year-old lady.
