Default Cattleya jenmanii var. orlata-pincelada 'Pacaraima'

This year’s flowers do not make justice to what they really are. The plant was repotted last year and is not showing its full potential. The shape is not so good as it should be and the flares are fainter than the normal. The second link shows it the way it really is.

I guess I just can't see much difference as both pics looked amazing to me.

The bright side is that it's interesting to observe variations from one flowering to the next as a result of cultural practices or conditions. For me, it's often something to learn from.

And how we learn, Anglo! Look at photos of a few different seasons, relate them to the growing practices you adopted and you will learn a lot!
