Default Blc. Hunting Island
This is (Slc. Star of Bethleham 'Casper' X Blc. Oconee 'Mendenhall' AM/AOS). It has all ways bloomed without a sheath.

Very pretty! Some cattleyas do bloom without sheaths. I have some that bloom with one sheath inside another sheath also.

And some (hybrids at least) that sometimes bloom from sheaths, sometimes without a sheath

Nice cross - lots of nice plants have resulted from using Oconee as a parent.
