Cattleya gaskelliana surprise!
When I neared the room where my orchids are growing, there was a lovely fragrance. I did have a few fragrant orchids in bloom but two of them were finished blooming, one is night fragrant and the other is only fragrant in the morning. I did a search and discovered that one of my Cattleya gaskellianas was in bloom. 
Unfortunately, the top was too close to the lights but I am still happy with the blooms.

I just thought I would add the picture of the other gaskelliana for comparison (they are siblings from the same flask). I love how different the two of them are.

Wow, they are so beautiful! I can't wait for mine to bloom now. It has a sheath on it, so hopefully blooms come along with it.
