A ruby beauty

That lip is definitely C. dowiana influenced.
I found the following at this site -
Orchid Talk 2006 mailing list messages
"BLC Chia Lin is a complex hybrid containing genetic material from 16 species and 14 of these are fragrant. However nearly half of it's genes are from Cattleya dowiana which is both fragrant and large flowered."
I have a large seedling of 'New City' that continues to grow

How old do these Catts have to be before they bloom?
Do these mature at 7 years?
