unknown cattleya - Orchid Board

Hello everyone,
One of the photo's submitted for the calendar had a great resemblance to one of my cattleya's, one I never figured out what it was, but I'm quite sure it's a hybrid. It would be very nice to know where his 'roots' lie (well, his pot, ofcource.. I mean his other roots

).
I initially posted my question in one of the calendar threads but decided to ask again in the right spot!

I tried to find who submitted that photo but didn't find it unfortunatly.
This is what mine looks like:

Any ideas?

ReneeS, looks like we got spammed. I can't identify your lovely orchid for sure. Sort of looks like Angel Bells, but not quite. Lovely, though.

Perhaps you could cruise around on Carter & Holmes site and get some ideas as to who the relatives might be....

I'm thinking that it might be one of the Japhets hybrids. Couldn't tell you which one, exactly. I'm thinking it has Cattleya intermedia in its background. Good luck!

Whatever it is .. it be a NOID ... and it's a beaut!

Thanks for the replies! I think I'll just have to give up on trying to find out the background of the plant :P
NOID it is indeed
