Cattleya percivaliana
Hi all,
Have had this plant maybe three years. It bloomed for me last year in early December with just one bloom. This year it bloomed yesterday, and there is a second bud on the way. I have not detected any scent yet. Hope I do.

Totally gorgeous! I bought one with a small sheath this fall. But it was so badly in need of re-potting that I finally did and the sheath is not going to make it. I'll enjoy yours  |

Gorgeous, Tindo. Had one years ago (another era of orchid growing for me) and don't remember that it is scented, but may be wrong.
