Hi,

I don't think either of your Catts are C. Portia. Portia is a very tall, multiflowering smaller flower. Bulbs maybe 3 feet tall, up to 15 to 25 or so flowers per spike. Fine portias are rounder, small size dark flowers. Varieties Cannizaro and Coerulea (blue) are the two popular ones. Coerulea is a light lavender, in the orchid world it is called "blue".
