Cattleya schroederae
I don't know why this species is not more popular. The fragrance is great, the flowers are beautiful, it blooms when the weather is gloomy, and it is easy to grow. I'll never stop appreciating this plant.

Nothing out of the ordinary: 60F at night and about 80F in the day with "cattleya" light. Weakly weekly urea-free fertilizer (125-150 ppm).
I usually follow the advice in Chadwick's book. |

Gorgeous. It's on my look for list and hopefully I'll find one that's at least 1/2 as nice as yours.
